[RFC PATCH] mm: CONFIG_NR_ZONES_EXTENDED

[Dan Williams]

ZONE_DEVICE (merged in 4.3) and ZONE_CMA (proposed) are examples of new
mm zones that are bumping up against the current maximum limit of 4
zones, i.e. 2 bits in page->flags.  When adding a zone this equation
still needs to be satisified:

    SECTIONS_WIDTH + ZONES_WIDTH + NODES_SHIFT + LAST_CPUPID_SHIFT
	  <= BITS_PER_LONG - NR_PAGEFLAGS

ZONE_DEVICE currently tries to satisfy this equation by requiring that
ZONE_DMA be disabled, but this is untenable given generic kernels want
to support ZONE_DEVICE and ZONE_DMA simultaneously.  ZONE_CMA would like
to increase the amount of memory covered per section, but that limits
the minimum granularity at which consecutive memory ranges can be added
via devm_memremap_pages().

The trade-off of what is acceptable to sacrifice depends heavily on the
platform.  For example, ZONE_CMA is targeted for 32-bit platforms where
page->flags is constrained, but those platforms likely do not care about
the minimum granularity of memory hotplug.  A big iron machine with 1024
numa nodes can likely sacrifice ZONE_DMA where a general purpose
distribution kernel can not.

CONFIG_NR_ZONES_EXTENDED is a configuration symbol that gets selected
when the number of configured zones exceeds 4.  It documents the
configuration symbols and definitions that get modified when ZONES_WIDTH
is greater than 2.

For now, it steals a bit from NODES_SHIFT.  Later on it can be used to
document the definitions that get modified when a 32-bit configuration
wants more zone bits.

Note that GFP_ZONE_TABLE poses an interesting constraint since
include/linux/gfp.h gets included by the 32-bit portion of a 64-bit
build.  We need to be careful to only build the table for zones that
have a corresponding gfp_t flag.  GFP_ZONES_SHIFT is introduced for this
purpose.  This patch does not attempt to solve the problem of adding a
new zone that also has a corresponding GFP_ flag.
