[PATCHv9 04/14] mm/page_alloc: Add sysfs handle to accept accept_memory

From: Kirill A. Shutemov
Date: Thu Mar 30 2023 - 07:50:45 EST


Write amount of memory to accept into the new sysfs handle
/sys/kernel/mm/page_alloc/accept_memory.

Write 'all' to the handle to accept all memory in the system.

It can be used to implement background memory accepting from userspace.
It is also useful for debugging.
