The vmscan bail out patch move nr_reclaimed variable to struct
scan_control. Unfortunately, indirect access can easily happen cache
miss.
if heavy memory pressure happend, that's ok.
cache miss already plenty. it is not observable.
but, if memory pressure is lite, performance degression is obserbable.
I compared following three pattern (it was mesured 10 times each)
hackbench 125 process 3000
hackbench 130 process 3000
hackbench 135 process 3000
2.6.28-rc6 bail-out

about 4-5% degression.
Then, this patch introduces a temporary local variable.
result:
2.6.28-rc6 this patch
