A partial merge. The first 6 patches from a 20 patch series. Some code cleanups and minimal optimizations. This patch (of 6): We don't have to add a freeable page into lru and then remove from it. This change saves a couple of actions and makes the moving more clear. The SetPageLRU needs to be kept here for list intergrity. Otherwise: #0 mave_pages_to_lru #1 release_pages if (put_page_testzero()) if !put_page_testzero !PageLRU //skip lru_lock list_add(&page->lru,) list_add(&page->lru,) //corrupt Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1583146830-169516-2-git-send-email-alex.shi@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Signed-off-by: Alex Shi <alex.shi@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Johannes Weiner <hannes@xxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Tejun Heo <tj@xxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Matthew Wilcox <willy@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Hugh Dickins <hughd@xxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Konstantin Khlebnikov <khlebnikov@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Daniel Jordan <daniel.m.jordan@xxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Yang Shi <yang.shi@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Andrea Arcangeli <aarcange@xxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Kirill A.
