[PATCH RESEND v1 1/2] mm/page_alloc: don't use __GFP_HARDWALL when migrating pages via alloc_contig*()
From: David Hildenbrand
Date: Thu Dec 05 2024 - 04:08:29 EST
We'll migrate pages allocated by other contexts; respecting the cpuset of
the alloc_contig*() caller when allocating a migration target does not
make sense.
Drop the __GFP_HARDWALL.
Note that in an ideal world, migration code could figure out the cpuset
of the original context and take that into consideration.
