Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.

mm/migrate: clear __GFP_RECLAIM to make the migration callback consistent with regular THP allocations new_page_nodemask is a migration callback and it tries to use a common gfp flags for the target page allocation whether it is a base page or a THP. The later only adds GFP_TRANSHUGE to the given mask. This results in the allocation being slightly more aggressive than necessary because the resulting gfp mask will contain also __GFP_RECLAIM_KSWAPD. THP allocations usually exclude this flag to reduce over eager background reclaim during a high THP allocation load which has been seen during large mmaps initialization. There is no indication that this is a problem for migration as well but theoretically the same might happen when migrating large mappings to a different node. Make the migration callback consistent with regular THP allocations. [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix comment typo, per Vlastimil] Signed-off-by:Joonsoo Kim <iamjoonsoo.kim@lge.com> Signed-off-by:
