I guess for a very small upper zone and a very large lower zone this could

Why doesn't direct reclaim need similar treatment?
Because we only go into the direct reclaim path once
every zone is at or below zone->pages_low, and the
direct reclaim path will exit once we have freed more
than swap_cluster_max pages.
