OK, a question and a remark:

1) does memclass_related_bhs() work if the bufferheads are
on another node ? (NUMA-Q)

2) memclass_related_bhs() will definately not work if the
data structure is pinned indirectly, say struct address_space
which is pinned by mere the existance of the page cache page
and cannot easily be freed
