[PATCH 2/9] mm: add apply_to_page_range_batch()

From: Jeremy Fitzhardinge
Date: Mon Jan 24 2011 - 17:57:51 EST


From: Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy.fitzhardinge@xxxxxxxxxx>

apply_to_page_range() calls its callback function once for each pte, which
is pretty inefficient since it will almost always be operating on a batch
of adjacent ptes. apply_to_page_range_batch() calls its callback
with both a pte_t * and a count, so it can operate on multiple ptes at
once.

The callback is expected to handle all its ptes, or return an error. For
both apply_to_page_range and apply_to_page_range_batch, it is up to
the caller to work out how much progress was made if either fails with
an error.
