[PATCH 3/6] mm, compaction: encapsulate resetting cached scanner positions

From: Vlastimil Babka
Date: Wed Jun 10 2015 - 05:33:52 EST


Resetting the cached compaction scanner positions is now done implicitly in
__reset_isolation_suitable() and compact_finished(). Encapsulate the
functionality in a new function reset_cached_positions() and call it explicitly
where needed.
