[PATCH] arm64: init: override deferred_page_init_max_threads

From: Eric Chanudet
Date: Mon May 20 2024 - 19:21:01 EST


This was the behavior prior to making the function arch-specific with
commit ecd096506922 ("mm: make deferred init's max threads
arch-specific")

Architectures can override the generic implementation that uses only one
CPU. Setting DEFERRED_STRUCT_PAGE_INIT and testing on a few arm64
platforms shows faster deferred_init_memmap completions:

| | x13s | SA8775p-ride | Ampere R137-P31 | Ampere HR330 |
| | Metal, 32GB | VM, 36GB | VM, 58GB | Metal, 128GB |
| | 8cpus | 8cpus | 8cpus | 32cpus |
|---------|-------------|--------------|-----------------|--------------|
| threads | ms (%) | ms (%) | ms (%) | ms (%) |
|---------|-------------|--------------|-----------------|--------------|
| 1 | 108 (0%) | 72 (0%) | 224 (0%) | 324 (0%) |
| cpus | 24 (-77%) | 36 (-50%) | 40 (-82%) | 56 (-82%) |
