Re: [PATCH 1/3] Use zonelists instead of zones when direct reclaiming pages

Yeah, it could. It's a cleanup even though it doesn't simplify the
iterator. When the patch was done first, it was because multiple
iterators were needed to go through the zones in the zonelist. With this
cleanup, only one iterator was needed but it could be carried through
for consistency.
