[PATCH 1/4] (CMA_AGGRESSIVE) Add CMA_AGGRESSIVE to Kconfig
From: Hui Zhu
Date: Wed Oct 15 2014 - 23:36:36 EST
Add CMA_AGGRESSIVE config that depend on CMA to Linux kernel config.
Add CMA_AGGRESSIVE_PHY_MAX, CMA_AGGRESSIVE_FREE_MIN and CMA_AGGRESSIVE_SHRINK
that depend on CMA_AGGRESSIVE.
If physical memory size (not include CMA memory) in byte less than or equal to
CMA_AGGRESSIVE_PHY_MAX, CMA aggressive switch (sysctl vm.cma-aggressive-switch)
will be opened.
When system boot, this value will set to sysctl "vm.cma-aggressive-free-min".
If this value is true, sysctl "vm.cma-aggressive-shrink-switch" will be set to
true when Linux boot.
