Subject: [PATCH 2/9] mm/page_alloc: Convert per-cpu list protection to local_lock
There is a lack of clarity of what exactly local_irq_save/local_irq_restore
protects in page_alloc.c . It conflates the protection of per-cpu page
allocation structures with per-cpu vmstat deltas.
This patch protects the PCP structure using local_lock which for most
configurations is identical to IRQ enabling/disabling. The scope of the
lock is still wider than it should be but this is decreased later.
It is possible for the local_lock to be embedded safely within struct
per_cpu_pages but it adds complexity to free_unref_page_list.
