[PATCH v5, part3 10/15] mm: accurately calculate zone->managed_pages for highmem zones

From: Jiang Liu
Date: Wed May 08 2013 - 11:19:51 EST


Commit "mm: introduce new field 'managed_pages' to struct zone" assumes
that all highmem pages will be freed into the buddy system by function
mem_init(). But that's not always true, some architectures may reserve
some highmem pages during boot. For example PPC may allocate highmem
pages for giagant HugeTLB pages, and several architectures have code to
check PageReserved flag to exclude highmem pages allocated during boot
when freeing highmem pages into the buddy system.

So treat highmem pages in the same way as normal pages, that is to:
1) reset zone->managed_pages to zero in mem_init().
2) recalculate managed_pages when freeing pages into the buddy system.
