[PATCH RFC v2 04/27] mm: migrate/mempolicy: Add hook to modify migration target gfp

From: Alexandru Elisei
Date: Sun Nov 19 2023 - 11:58:10 EST


It might be desirable for an architecture to modify the gfp flags used to
allocate the destination page for migration based on the page that it is
being replaced. For example, if an architectures has metadata associated
with a page (like arm64, when the memory tagging extension is implemented),
it can request that the destination page similarly has storage for tags
already allocated.

No functional change.
