Subject: [PATCH] Make CONFIG_MIGRATION available for s390

From: Gerald Schaefer <[email protected]>

We'd like to support CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTREMOVE on s390, which depends on
CONFIG_MIGRATION. So far, CONFIG_MIGRATION is only available with NUMA
support.

This patch makes CONFIG_MIGRATION selectable for s390. When MIGRATION
is enabled w/o NUMA, the kernel won't compile because of a missing
"migrate" member in vm_operations_struct and a missing "policy_zone"
definition. To avoid this, those are moved from an "#ifdef CONFIG_NUMA"
section to "#ifdef CONFIG_MIGRATION".

Hmm. I think ARCH_ENABLE_MEMORY_HOTREMOVE is better than S390.

Bye.

Right, that makes more sense. I also noticed that my patch will produce
a compile error when CONFIG_NUMA is set but CONFIG_MIGRATION is not,
because policy_zone is missing in that case. Since policy_zone is only
used for NUMA, a better solution would be to use an "#ifdef CONFIG_NUMA"
within vma_migratable(). I will send a new version of the patch.

Thanks,
Gerald
