[PATCH v3 2/2] mm/page_alloc: use a single function to free page

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



We have multiple places of freeing a page, most of them doing similar
things and a common function can be used to reduce code duplicate.

It also avoids bug fixed in one function but left in another.

v3: Vlastimil mentioned the possible performance loss by using
    page_ref_sub_and_test(page, 1) for put_page_testzero(page), since
    we aren't sure so be safe by keeping page ref decreasing code as
    is, only move freeing page part to a common function.
