[PATCH v1 2/2] mm/memory_hotplug: don't use __GFP_HARDWALL when migrating pages via memory offlining

From: David Hildenbrand
Date: Thu Dec 05 2024 - 03:52:54 EST


We'll migrate pages allocated by other context; respecting the cpuset of
the memory offlining context when allocating a migration target does not
make sense.

Drop the __GFP_HARDWALL by using GFP_KERNEL.

Note that in an ideal world, migration code could figure out the cpuset
of the original context and take that into consideration.
