[RFC 03/11] khugepaged: Don't allocate khugepaged mm_slot early
From: Nico Pache
Date: Wed Jan 08 2025 - 18:34:15 EST
We should only "enter"/allocate the khugepaged mm_slot if we succeed at
allocating the PMD sized folio. Move the khugepaged_enter_vma call until
after we know the vma_alloc_folio was successful.
