[PATCH v4 05/10] mm/gup: migrate pinned pages out of movable zone
From: Pavel Tatashin
Date: Thu Dec 17 2020 - 13:54:35 EST
We should not pin pages in ZONE_MOVABLE. Currently, we do not pin only
movable CMA pages. Generalize the function that migrates CMA pages to
migrate all movable pages. Use is_pinnable_page() to check which
pages need to be migrated
