[RFC][PATCH] mm/page_isolation: tracing: trace all test_pages_isolated failures

From: George G. Davis
Date: Mon Aug 23 2021 - 16:28:34 EST


From: "George G. Davis" <davis.george@xxxxxxxxxxx>

Some test_pages_isolated failure conditions don't include trace points.
For debugging issues caused by "pinned" pages, make sure to trace all
calls whether they succeed or fail. In this case, a failure case did not
result in a trace point. So add the missing failure case in
test_pages_isolated traces.
