[PATCH 24/46] mm: numa: Add fault driven placement and migration

From: Mel Gorman
Date: Wed Nov 21 2012 - 05:27:50 EST

From: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@xxxxxxxxx>

NOTE: This patch is based on "sched, numa, mm: Add fault driven
placement and migration policy" but as it throws away all the policy
to just leave a basic foundation I had to drop the signed-offs-by.

This patch creates a bare-bones method for setting PTEs pte_numa in the
context of the scheduler that when faulted later will be faulted onto the
node the CPU is running on. In itself this does nothing useful but any
placement policy will fundamentally depend on receiving hints on placement
from fault context and doing something intelligent about it.
