[PATCH v4 10/13] mm/mempolicy: VMA allocation for many preferred

[Feng Tang]

From: Ben Widawsky <ben.widawsky@xxxxxxxxx>

This patch implements MPOL_PREFERRED_MANY for alloc_pages_vma(). Like
alloc_pages_current(), alloc_pages_vma() needs to support policy based
decisions if they've been configured via mbind(2).

The temporary "hack" of treating MPOL_PREFERRED and MPOL_PREFERRED_MANY
can now be removed with this, too.

All the actual machinery to make this work was part of
("mm/mempolicy: Create a page allocator for policy")
