Why two empty lines before the "} while (ret);" ? (unless I'm confused
while looking at this diff)


No there's just a single emply line after "ret = test_pages_isolated..."
Before there was none, which looked ok with the extra identation of the
now-removed "drain_all_pages(zone);"

These two hunks look like an unrelated cleanup, or am I missing something?

It's extracting part of functionality to __zone_set_pageset_high_and_batch()
that's now called also from zone_pcp_enable() and zone_pcp_disable() - to only
adjust the per-cpu zone->pageset values without the usual calculation.

Thanks for looking into this!

Thanks for review. Here's updated version that adds more detailed comment about
force_all_cpus parameter to __drain_all_pages() header, hopefully that clarifies
your concerns.


LGTM!
