Currently we free the reclaimed slots through slot cache even if the slot is required to be empty immediately. As a result the reclaim caller will see the slot still occupied even after a successful reclaim, and need to keep reclaiming until slot cache get flushed. This caused ineffective or over reclaim when SWAP is under stress. So introduce a new flag allowing the slot to be emptied bypassing the slot cache.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
