Sorry for the delay.
I think there is two options:
atomic_long_dec(&pool->isolated_pages);
smp_mb__after_atomic
atomic_long_read(&pool->isolated_pages) == 0
We have two atomic ops with one smp_mb.
vs
atomic_long_dec_and_test while implies __smp_mb__before_atomic + atomic_long_ops + smp_mb__after_atomic.
We have one atomic ops with two smp_mb.
I think either one works but prefer later one. What do you think?
Thanks.
