From: Vlastimil Babka <vbabka@xxxxxxx>
Subject: mm: reduce try_to_compact_pages parameters
Expand the usage of the struct alloc_context introduced in the previous
patch also for calling try_to_compact_pages(), to reduce the number of its
parameters. Since the function is in different compilation unit, we need
to move alloc_context definition in the shared mm/internal.h header.
With this change we get simpler code and small savings of code size and stack
usage:
add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 0/1 up/down: 0/-27 (-27)
function old new delta
__alloc_pages_direct_compact 283 256 -27
add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 0/1 up/down: 0/-13 (-13)
function old new delta
try_to_compact_pages 582 569 -13
Stack usage of __alloc_pages_direct_compact goes from 24 to none (per
scripts/checkstack.pl).
