Remove page cache's uptodate flag usage to force an extended group's
buddy to be re-initialized after an online resize.
Signed-off-by: Frederic Bohe <frederic.bohe@xxxxxxxx>
---
The previous patch uses only one flag to force the initialization. This
lead the bitmap of a group to be potentially initialized several times
by several threads, until one thread has finished to initialize the
buddy and clear the flag for this group. This produce inconsistency in
the mballocator's data. So I use two flags to be sure bitmap and buddy
are initialized only once.
