[RFC 1/5] mm, page_alloc: clean up pageset high and batch update

From: Vlastimil Babka
Date: Mon Sep 07 2020 - 12:40:40 EST


The updates to pcplists' high and batch valued are handled by multiple
functions that make the calculations hard to follow. Consolidate everything
to pageset_set_high_and_batch() and remove pageset_set_batch() and
pageset_set_high() wrappers.

The only special case using one of the removed wrappers was:
build_all_zonelists_init()
setup_pageset()
pageset_set_batch()
which was hardcoding batch as 0, so we can just open-code a call to
pageset_update() with constant parameters instead.

No functional change.
