Subject: [PATCH v2 1/3] mm: remove activate_page() from unuse_pte()
Date: Tue, 18 Aug 2020 12:47:02 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200818184704.3625199-1-yuzhao@google.com> (raw)

We don't initially add anon pages to active lruvec after
commit b518154e59aa ("mm/vmscan: protect the workingset on anonymous LRU").
Remove activate_page() from unuse_pte(), which seems to be missed by
the commit. And make the function static while we are at it.

Before the commit, we called lru_cache_add_active_or_unevictable() to
add new ksm pages to active lruvec. Therefore, activate_page() wasn't
necessary for them in the first place.
