From: Mel Gorman <mgorman@xxxxxxx>
Subject: mm: meminit: initialise a subset of struct pages if CONFIG_DEFERRED_STRUCT_PAGE_INIT is set
This patch initalises all low memory struct pages and 2G of the highest
zone on each node during memory initialisation if
CONFIG_DEFERRED_STRUCT_PAGE_INIT is set. That config option cannot be set
but will be available in a later patch. Parallel initialisation of struct
page depends on some features from memory hotplug and it is necessary to
alter alter section annotations.

+ Ordinarily all struct pages are initialised during early boot in a

+ processes running early in the lifetime of the systemm until kswapd
+ finishes the initialisation.
