Subject: [PATCH 1/2] mm, page_isolation: remove bogus tests for isolated pages

The __test_page_isolated_in_pageblock() is used to verify whether all pages
in pageblock were either successfully isolated, or are hwpoisoned. Two of the
possible state of pages, that are tested, are however bogus and misleading.

Both tests rely on get_freepage_migratetype(page), which however has no
guarantees about pages on freelists. Specifically, it doesn't guarantee that
the migratetype returned by the function actually matches the migratetype of
the freelist that the page is on. Such guarantee is not its purpose and would
have negative impact on allocator performance.

The first test checks whether the freepage_migratetype equals MIGRATE_ISOLATE,
supposedly to catch races between page isolation and allocator activity. These
races should be fixed nowadays with 51bb1a4093 ("mm/page_alloc: add freepage
on isolate pageblock to correct buddy list") and related patches. As explained
above, the check wouldn't be able to catch them reliably anyway. For the same
reason false positives can happen, although they are harmless, as the
move_freepages() call would just move the page to the same freelist it's
already on. So removing the test is not a bug fix, just cleanup. After this
patch, we assume that all PageBuddy pages are on the correct freelist and that
the races were really fixed. A truly reliable verification in the form of e.g.
VM_BUG_ON() would be complicated and is arguably not needed.

The second test (page_count(page) == 0 && get_freepage_migratetype(page)
== MIGRATE_ISOLATE) is probably supposed (the code comes from a big memory
isolation patch from 2007) to catch pages on MIGRATE_ISOLATE pcplists.
However, pcplists don't contain MIGRATE_ISOLATE freepages nowadays, those are
freed directly to free lists, so the check is obsolete. Remove it as well.

Subject: [PATCH 2/2] mm: rename and move get/set_freepage_migratetype

The pair of get/set_freepage_migratetype() functions are used to cache
pageblock migratetype for a page put on a pcplist, so that it does not have
to be retrieved again when the page is put on a free list (e.g. when pcplists
become full). Historically it was also assumed that the value is accurate for
pages on freelists (as the functions' names unfortunately suggest), but that
cannot be guaranteed without affecting various allocator fast paths. It is in
fact not needed and all such uses have been removed.

The last remaining (but pointless) usage related to pages of freelists is in
move_freepages(), which this patch removes.

To prevent further confusion, rename the functions to
get/set_pcppage_migratetype() and expand their description. Since all the
users are now in mm/page_alloc.c, move the functions there from the shared
header.

You may want to consider stating your assumptions explicitly in the code,
perhaps with VM_BUG_ON(), such as in free_pcppages_bulk() to ensure things
like get_freepage_migratetype(page) != MIGRATE_ISOLATE.

Hm, OK here's a fixup. I've pondered others but nothing made sense
unless I would have to devise really twisted ways in which somebody
broke the code in the future, and that's not worth BUG_ON().

But the checking made me realize that one more
set_freepage_migratetype() can be removed in the other patch, so I
will resend it.

I realized there's one more callsite that can be removed. Here's
whole updated patch due to different changelog and to cope with
context changed by the fixlet to patch 1/2.

Subject: mm: rename and move get/set_freepage_migratetype

The pair of get/set_freepage_migratetype() functions are used to cache
pageblock migratetype for a page put on a pcplist, so that it does not have
to be retrieved again when the page is put on a free list (e.g. when pcplists
become full). Historically it was also assumed that the value is accurate for
pages on freelists (as the functions' names unfortunately suggest), but that
cannot be guaranteed without affecting various allocator fast paths. It is in
fact not needed and all such uses have been removed.

The last two remaining (but pointless) usages related to pages of freelists
are removed by this patch:
- move_freepages() which operates on pages already on freelists
- __free_pages_ok() which puts a page directly to freelist, bypassing pcplists

To prevent further confusion, rename the functions to
get/set_pcppage_migratetype() and expand their description. Since all the
users are now in mm/page_alloc.c, move the functions there from the shared
header.
