mm: add free_hot_cold_page_list() helper
This patch adds helper free_hot_cold_page_list() to free list of 0-order pages. It frees pages directly from list without temporary page-vector. It also calls trace_mm_pagevec_free() to simulate pagevec_free() behaviour. bloat-o-meter: add/remove: 1/1 grow/shrink: 1/3 up/down: 267/-295 (-28) function old new delta free_hot_cold_page_list - 264 +264 get_page_from_freelist 2129 2132 +3 __pagevec_free 243 239 -4 split_free_page 380 373 -7 release_pages 606 510 -96 free_page_list 188 - -188 Signed-off-by: Konstantin Khlebnikov <khlebnikov@openvz.org> Cc: Mel Gorman <mel@csn.ul.ie> Cc: KOSAKI Motohiro <kosaki.motohiro@jp.fujitsu.com> Acked-by: Minchan Kim <minchan.kim@gmail.com> Acked-by: Hugh Dickins <hughd@google.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
