[v15,12/21] mm/lru: introduce TestClearPageLRU

Commit Message

Alex Shi July 7, 2020, 11:46 a.m. UTC

Combine PageLRU check and ClearPageLRU into a function by new
introduced func TestClearPageLRU. This function will be used as page
isolation precondition to prevent other isolations some where else.
Then there are may non PageLRU page on lru list, need to remove BUG
checking accordingly.

Hugh Dickins pointed that __page_cache_release and release_pages
has no need to do atomic clear bit since no user on the page at that
moment. and no need get_page() before lru bit clear in isolate_lru_page,
since it '(1) Must be called with an elevated refcount on the page'.

As Andrew Morton mentioned this change would dirty cacheline for page
isn't on LRU. But the lost would be acceptable with Rong Chen
