[PATCH 15/22] mm: page allocator: Check if interrupts are enabled only once per allocation attempt
From: Mel Gorman
Date: Wed May 08 2013 - 12:06:39 EST
in_interrupt() is not that expensive but it's still potentially called
a very large number of times during a page allocation. Ensure it's only
called once. As the check if now firmly in the allocation path, we can
use __GFP_WAIT as an cheaper check for IRQs being disabled.
