[PATCH v2 0/5] Cleanups and fixup for page_alloc

From: Miaohe Lin
Date: Thu Sep 02 2021 - 08:12:27 EST


Hi all,
This series contains cleanups to remove meaningless VM_BUG_ON(), use
helpers to simplify the code and remove obsolete comment. Also we avoid
allocating highmem pages via alloc_pages_exact[_nid]. More details can
be found in the respective changelogs. Thanks!

v1->v2:
collect Reviewed-by and Acked-by tag
preserve valid comments for free_pcppages_bulk
send patch "mm/page_alloc.c: avoid accessing uninitialized pcp page
migratetype" separately.
s/__GFP_COMP/(__GFP_COMP|__GFP_HIGHMEM)/g throughout both
alloc_pages_exact() and alloc_pages_exact_nid()
