Subject: [PATCH v4 0/4 (resend)] Optimize CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC (x86 and s390)

Andrew, here is a resend as these patches were dropped as I also 
had them on my linux-next branch (instead of a private one)

As CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC can be enabled/disabled via kernel
parameters we can optimize some cases by checking the enablement
state.

I have done s390 and x86. Other architecture can follow as necessary.

Christian Borntraeger (4):
  mm: provide debug_pagealloc_enabled() without CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC
  x86: query dynamic DEBUG_PAGEALLOC setting
  s390: query dynamic DEBUG_PAGEALLOC setting
  x86: also use debug_pagealloc_enabled() for free_init_pages
