From: Mel Gorman <mgorman@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: mm, pagevec: release/reacquire lru_lock on pgdat change With node-lru, the locking is based on the pgdat. Previously it was required that a pagevec drain released one zone lru_lock and acquired another zone lru_lock on every zone change. Now, it's only necessary if the node changes. The end-result is fewer lock release/acquires if the pages are all on the same node but in different zones.
