Subject: [PATCH 4/6] mm, migrate: Drop references to successfully migrated pages at the same time
Date: Tue, 21 Apr 2015 11:41:18 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1429612880-21415-5-git-send-email-mgorman@suse.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1429612880-21415-1-git-send-email-mgorman@suse.de>

After each migration attempt, putback_lru_page() is used to drop the last
reference to the page.  This is fine but it prevents the batching of TLB
flushes because the flush must happen before a free. This patch drops all
the migrated pages at once in preparation for batching the TLB flush.
