This is not supposed to hit 10-STABLE, at least not before proper
review. This is the reason why it was proposed on mailing lists. Also,
if you read the patch you'll end up with realizing this should behave
better on low memory environment because it unconditionally cleans 10%
of the cache every time. Previous changes in this area just did the
opposite keeping a lot more of memory around. I hope this makes sense
to you.

Thanks,
