From: Andrea Arcangeli <aarcange@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: mm: gup: pack has_pinned in MMF_HAS_PINNED has_pinned 32bit can be packed in the MMF_HAS_PINNED bit as a noop cleanup. Any atomic_inc/dec to the mm cacheline shared by all threads in pin-fast would reintroduce a loss of SMP scalability to pin-fast, so there's no future potential usefulness to keep an atomic in the mm for this. set_bit(MMF_HAS_PINNED) will be theoretically a bit slower than WRITE_ONCE (atomic_set is equivalent to WRITE_ONCE), but the set_bit (just like atomic_set after this commit) has to be still issued only once per "mm", so the difference between the two will be lost in the noise. will-it-scale "mmap2" shows no change in performance with enterprise config as expected. will-it-scale "pin_fast" retains the > 4000% SMP scalability performance improvement against upstream as expected. This is a noop as far as overall performance and SMP scalability are concerned.
