During memory hotplugging we traverse struct pages three times:
1. memset(0) in sparse_add_one_section()
2. loop in __add_section() to set do: set_page_node(page, nid); and
SetPageReserved(page);
3. loop in memmap_init_zone() to call __init_single_pfn()
This patch removes the first two loops, and leaves only loop 3. All struct
pages are initialized in one place, the same as it is done during boot.
The benefits:
- We improve memory hotplug performance because we are not evicting the
cache several times and also reduce loop branching overhead.
- Remove condition from hotpath in __init_single_pfn(), that was added in
order to fix the problem that was reported by Bharata in the above email
thread, thus also improve performance during normal boot.
- Make memory hotplug more similar to the boot memory initialization path
because we zero and initialize struct pages only in one function.
- Simplifies memory hotplug struct page initialization code, and thus
enables future improvements, such as multi-threading the initialization
of struct pages in order to improve hotplug performance even further on
larger machines.
