H A Dvmscan.cdiff 7a704474b3022dabbb68f72bf18a3d89ec1c0a24 Tue Jun 20 21:30:53 CDT 2023 Yosry Ahmed <yosryahmed@google.com> mm: memcg: rename and document global_reclaim()

Evidently, global_reclaim() can be a confusing name. Especially that it
used to exist before with a subtly different definition (removed by commit
b5ead35e7e1d ("mm: vmscan: naming fixes: global_reclaim() and
sane_reclaim()"). It can be interpreted as non-cgroup reclaim, even
though it returns true for cgroup reclaim on the root memcg (through
memory.reclaim).

Rename it to root_reclaim() in an attempt to make it less ambiguous, and
add documentation to it as well as cgroup_reclaim.
