[PATCH v2 1/3] mm/memcg: revise the using condition of lock_page_lruvec function series

[Alex Shi]

lock_page_lruvec() and its variants are safe to use under the same
conditions as commit_charge(): add lock_page_memcg() to the comment.

Polished with Hugh Dickins' suggestions, thanks!

[PATCH v2 2/3] mm/memcg: remove rcu locking for lock_page_lruvec function series

[Alex Shi]

lock_page_lruvec() and its variants used rcu_read_lock() with the
intention of safeguarding against the mem_cgroup being destroyed
concurrently; but so long as they are called under the specified
conditions (as they are), there is no way for the page's mem_cgroup
to be destroyed.  Delete the unnecessary rcu_read_lock() and _unlock().

Hugh Dickin's polished the commit log, Thanks a lot!

[PATCH v2 3/3] mm/compaction: remove rcu_read_lock during page compaction

[Alex Shi]

isolate_migratepages_block() used rcu_read_lock() with the intention
of safeguarding against the mem_cgroup being destroyed concurrently;
but its TestClearPageLRU already protects against that.  Delete the
unnecessary rcu_read_lock() and _unlock().
