[PATCH 3/4][mmotm] memcg: fix gfp_mask of callers of charge

From: KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki
Date: Tue Oct 28 2008 - 06:15:32 EST


fix misuse of gfp_kernel.

Now, most of callers of mem_cgroup_charge_xxx functions uses GFP_KERNEL.

I think that this is from the fact that page_cgroup *was* dynamically allocated.

But now, we allocate all page_cgroup at boot. And mem_cgroup_try_to_free_pages()
reclaim memory from GFP_HIGHUSER_MOVABLE + specified GFP_RECLAIM_MASK.
* This is because we just want to reduce memory usage.
"Where we should reclaim from ?" is not a problem in memcg.

This patch modifies gfp masks to be GFP_HIGUSER_MOVABLE if possible.
Note: This patch is not for fixing behavior but for showing sane information
in source code.
