[PATCH -mm v2 1/2] mem-hotplug: implement get/put_online_mems

From: Vladimir Davydov
Date: Mon Apr 07 2014 - 05:46:16 EST


{un}lock_memory_hotplug, which is used to synchronize against memory
hotplug, is currently backed by a mutex, which makes it a bit of a
hammer - threads that only want to get a stable value of online nodes
mask won't be able to proceed concurrently. Also, it imposes some strong
locking ordering rules on it, which narrows down the set of its usage
scenarios.

This patch introduces get/put_online_mems, which are the same as
get/put_online_cpus, but for memory hotplug, i.e. executing a code
inside a get/put_online_mems section will guarantee a stable value of
online nodes, present pages, etc.
