Subject: [PATCH 4/6] mm: don't remap unused subpages when splitting isolated thp
From: Yu Zhao <yuzhao@...gle.com>
Here being unused means containing only zeros and inaccessible to
userspace. When splitting an isolated thp under reclaim or migration,
there is no need to remap its unused subpages because they can be
faulted in anew. Not remapping them avoids writeback or copying during
reclaim or migration. This is particularly helpful when the internal
fragmentation of a thp is high, i.e., it has many untouched subpages.
This is also a prerequisite for THP low utilization shrinker which will
be introduced in later patches, where underutilized THPs are split, and
the zero-filled split pages are freed saving memory.
