+ A high performance LRU implementation to heavily overcommit workloads

+ The default value of /sys/kernel/mm/lru_gen/enabled is 0. This option

+ This option keeps full stats for each generation, which can be read
+ from /sys/kernel/debug/lru_gen_full.

+ This will use order_base_2(N+1) spare bits from page flags.
+
+ Warning: do not use numbers larger than necessary because each

+ Larger values generally offer better protection to active pages under
+ heavy buffered I/O workloads.
