@jarkko Have you intentionally named it a "graveyard", not "isolated" (which would be consistent with LRUs in mm/)?

@oleksandr I just took the name from struct key for RFC. Did not give it much of thought to be honest... I.e., not something fighting for either :-)

@oleksandr iād compare key idiomatically maybe more like task_struct because it is memory with type (like task is) š graveyard is just keys no longer used, ready for freed.
Or like, you have memory with identity (UID/PID vs serial). And in a memory reclaimer isolation is afaik more like when you pick passive victims. Here the list is a dead ramp, nothing comes back alive.
