[PATCH v2 3/5] mm/page_alloc.c: fix obsolete comment in free_pcppages_bulk()

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

 



The second two paragraphs about "all pages pinned" and pages_scanned is
obsolete. And There are PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER + 1 + NR_PCP_THP orders
in pcp. So the same order assumption is not held now.
