H A Dmempolicy.hdiff 20ca87f22b82d5fbf1938e1668ac4f55d749fb8f Wed Apr 01 23:10:52 CDT 2020 Li Xinhai <lixinhai.lxh@gmail.com> mm/mempolicy: check hugepage migration is supported by arch in vma_migratable()

vma_migratable() is called to check if pages in vma can be migrated before
go ahead to further actions. Currently it is used in below code path:

- task_numa_work
- mbind
- move_pages

For hugetlb mapping, whether vma is migratable or not is determined by:
- CONFIG_ARCH_ENABLE_HUGEPAGE_MIGRATION
- arch_hugetlb_migration_supported

Issue: current code only checks for CONFIG_ARCH_ENABLE_HUGEPAGE_MIGRATION
alone, and no code should use it directly. (note that current code in
vma_migratable don't cause failure or bug because
unmap_and_move_huge_page() will catch unsupported hugepage and handle it
properly)

This patch checks the two factors by hugepage_migration_supported for
impoving code logic and robustness. It will enable early bail out of
hugepage migration procedure, but because currently all architecture
supporting hugepage migration is able to support all page size, we would
not see performance gain with this patch applied.

vma_migratable() is moved to mm/mempolicy.c, because of the circular
reference of mempolicy.h and hugetlb.h cause defining it as inline not
feasible.
