[PATCH RFC v3 03/35] mm: page_alloc: Add an arch hook to filter MIGRATE_CMA allocations

From: Alexandru Elisei
Date: Thu Jan 25 2024 - 11:45:05 EST


As an architecture might have specific requirements around the allocation
of CMA pages, add an arch hook that can disable allocations from
MIGRATE_CMA, if the allocation was otherwise allowed.

This will be used by arm64, which will put tag storage pages on the
MIGRATE_CMA list, and tag storage pages cannot be tagged. The filter will
be used to deny using MIGRATE_CMA for __GFP_TAGGED allocations.
