[PATCH 7/8] memory-hotplug: enable memory hotplug to handle hugepage

From: Naoya Horiguchi
Date: Thu Jul 18 2013 - 17:35:53 EST

Until now we can't offline memory blocks which contain hugepages because
a hugepage is considered as an unmovable page. But now with this patch
series, a hugepage has become movable, so by using hugepage migration we
can offline such memory blocks.

What's different from other users of hugepage migration is that we need
to decompose all the hugepages inside the target memory block into free
buddy pages after hugepage migration, because otherwise free hugepages
remaining in the memory block intervene the memory offlining.
For this reason we introduce new functions dissolve_free_huge_page() and
dissolve_free_huge_pages().

Other than that, what this patch does is straightforwardly to add hugepage
migration code, that is, adding hugepage code to the functions which scan
over pfn and collect hugepages to be migrated, and adding a hugepage
allocation function to alloc_migrate_target().

As for larger hugepages (1GB for x86_64), it's not easy to do hotremove
over them because it's larger than memory block. So we now simply leave
it to fail as it is.

ChangeLog v3:
- revert introducing migrate_movable_pages (the function was opened)
- add migratetype check in dequeue_huge_page_node to close the race
between scan and allocation
- make is_hugepage_movable use refcount to find active hugepages
instead of running through hugepage_activelist
- rename is_hugepage_movable to is_hugepage_active
- add alignment check in dissolve_free_huge_pages
- use round_up in calculating next scanning pfn
- use isolate_huge_page

ChangeLog v2:
- changed return value type of is_hugepage_movable() to bool
- is_hugepage_movable() uses list_for_each_entry() instead of *_safe()
- moved if(PageHuge) block before get_page_unless_zero() in do_migrate_range()
- do_migrate_range() returns -EBUSY for hugepages larger than memory block
- dissolve_free_huge_pages() calculates scan step and sets it to minimum
hugepage size
