[PATCH] mm, page_alloc: uninline the bad page part of check_new_page()
From: Vlastimil Babka
Date: Wed Apr 27 2016 - 09:47:29 EST
Bad pages should be rare so the code handling them doesn't need to be inline
for performance reasons. Put it to separate function which returns void.
This also assumes that the initial page_expected_state() result will match the
result of the thorough check, i.e. the page doesn't become "good" in the
meanwhile. This matches the same expectations already in place in
free_pages_check().
!DEBUG_VM bloat-o-meter:
add/remove: 1/0 grow/shrink: 0/1 up/down: 134/-274 (-140)
function old new delta
check_new_page_bad - 134 +134
get_page_from_freelist 3468 3194 -274
