Subject: mm: hugetlb_vmemmap: allow alloc vmemmap pages fallback to other nodes
Date: Wed, 6 Sep 2023 17:31:57 +0800
In vmemmap_remap_free(), a new head vmemmap page is allocated to avoid
breaking a contiguous block of struct page memory, however, the allocation
can always fail when the given node is movable node. Remove the
__GFP_THISNODE to help avoid fragmentation.
