Subject: Re: [PATCH 09/25] Calculate the migratetype for allocation only once

hmmm....
allocflags_to_migratetype() is very cheap function and buffered_rmqueue()
and other non-inline static function isn't guranteed inlined.
I don't think this patch improve performance on x86.
and, I have one comment to allocflags_to_migratetype.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
/* Convert GFP flags to their corresponding migrate type */
static inline int allocflags_to_migratetype(gfp_t gfp_flags)
{
WARN_ON((gfp_flags & GFP_MOVABLE_MASK) == GFP_MOVABLE_MASK);
if (unlikely(page_group_by_mobility_disabled))
return MIGRATE_UNMOVABLE;
/* Group based on mobility */
return (((gfp_flags & __GFP_MOVABLE) != 0) << 1) |
((gfp_flags & __GFP_RECLAIMABLE) != 0);
}
-------------------------------------------------------------------
s/WARN_ON/VM_BUG_ON/ is better?
GFP_MOVABLE_MASK makes 3. 3 mean MIGRATE_RESERVE. it seems obviously bug.
