When a folio is activated, lru_gen_add_folio() moves the folio to the
youngest generation. But unlike folio_update_gen()/folio_inc_gen(),
lru_gen_add_folio() doesn't reset the folio lru tier bits (LRU_REFS_MASK |
LRU_REFS_FLAGS). This inconsistency can affect how pages are aged via
folio_mark_accessed() (e.g. fd accesses), though no user visible impact
related to this has been detected yet.
Note that lru_gen_add_folio() cannot clear PG_workingset if the activation
is due to workingset refault, otherwise PSI accounting will be skipped.
So fix lru_gen_add_folio() to clear the lru tier bits other than
PG_workingset when activating a folio, and also clear all the lru tier
bits when a folio is activated via folio_activate() in
lru_gen_look_around().

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.
