  To: linux-mm, linux-kernel; +Cc: akpm, mhocko, hughd

Allocation helper functions for migrate_pages() remmain scattered with
similar names making them really confusing. Rename these functions based
on type of the intended migration. Function alloc_misplaced_dst_page()
remains unchanged as its highly specialized. The renamed functions are
listed below. Functionality of migration remains unchanged.

1. alloc_migrate_target -> new_page_alloc
2. new_node_page -> new_page_alloc_othernode
3. new_page -> new_page_alloc_keepnode
4. alloc_new_node_page -> new_page_alloc_node
5. new_page -> new_page_alloc_mempolicy

- Just renamed these function as suggested
- Previous RFC discussions (https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/10191331/)

Allocation helper functions for migrate_pages() remmain scattered with
similar names making them really confusing. Rename these functions based
on type of the intended migration. Function alloc_misplaced_dst_page()
remains unchanged as its highly specialized. The renamed functions are
listed below. Functionality of migration remains unchanged.

2. new_node_page -> new_page_alloc_othernode
3. new_page -> new_page_alloc_keepnode
4. alloc_new_node_page -> new_page_alloc_node

Hello Michal/Hugh,

Does the renaming good enough or we should just not rename these.

I'll neither ack nor nack, I don't greatly care: my concern was

Though alloc_new_node_page seems to me a *much* better name than
new_page_alloc_node; and I'm puzzled why you would demand this
conformity of some but not all of the functions of that type.
