Subject: [PATCH v6 0/2] Optimize zone->contiguous update and issue fix

This series contains 2 patches, the first one add a fast path to check
the zone->contiguous, the second one fix an issue when check the
zone->contiguous at the slow path during zone grows. The issue fixed
by the second patch can be found in the original code path without the
first patch.

Tianyou Li (1):
  mm/memory hotplug/unplug: Optimize zone->contiguous update when
    changes pfn range

Yuan Liu (1):
  mm/memory hotplug: fix zone->contiguous always false when hotplug


Changes History
===============
v2 changes:
   Add check_zone_contiguous_fast function to check zone contiguity for
   new  memory PFN ranges.

v3 changes:
   Add zone contiguity check for empty zones.

v4 changes:
   1. Improve coding style.
   2. Add fast path for zone contiguity check in memory unplugged cases,
      and update test results.
   3. Refactor set_zone_contiguous: the new set_zone_contiguous updates
      zone contiguity based on the fast path results.

v5 changes:
   1. Improve coding style.
   2. Fix a issue in which zone->contiguous was always false when adding
      new memory, leveraging the fast path optimization.

v6 changes:
   1. Improve coding style.
   2. Add comments.
