I can suspect commit 2c012a4ad1a2cd3fb5a0f9307b9d219f84eda1fa "mm: vmscan: scan 
anonymous pages on file refaults"

https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/2c012a4ad1a2cd3fb5a0f9307b9d219f84eda1fa

It appeared in kernel 5.3 and was backported to 4.19.62 and Ubuntu
kernel 4.15.0-59

... and to 5.2.3

But that commit "fixes" commits from the era of kernels 3.8 and 3.9, so
probably it is not the one I'm looking for.
