[PATCHv4 18/24] thp, mm: split_huge_page(): caller need to lock page

From: Kirill A. Shutemov
Date: Wed Mar 04 2015 - 11:34:09 EST


We're going to use migration entries instead of compound_lock() to
stabilize page refcounts. Setup and remove migration entries require
page to be locked.

Some of split_huge_page() callers already have the page locked. Let's
require everybody to lock the page before calling split_huge_page().
