Subject: [PATCH] mm/balloon_compaction: we cannot have isolated pages in the
 balloon list
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Patch series "mm/migration: rework movable_ops page migration (part 1)",
v2.

In the future, as we decouple "struct page" from "struct folio", pages
that support "non-lru page migration" -- movable_ops page migration such
as memory balloons and zsmalloc -- will no longer be folios.  They will
not have ->mapping, ->lru, and likely no refcount and no page lock.  But
they will have a type and flags 🙂

This is the first part (other parts not written yet) of decoupling
movable_ops page migration from folio migration.

In this series, we get rid of the ->mapping usage, and start cleaning up
the code + separating it from folio migration.

Migration core will have to be further reworked to not treat movable_ops
pages like folios.  This is the first step into that direction.


This patch (of 29):

The core will set PG_isolated only after mops->isolate_page() was called.
In case of the balloon, that is where we will remove it from the balloon
list.  So we cannot have isolated pages in the balloon list.

Let's drop this unnecessary check.
