Subject: [PATCH v3 0/3] mm: improve zone->lock scalability
Date:   Mon, 26 Feb 2018 21:53:43 +0800
Message-Id: <20180226135346.7208-1-aaron.lu@intel.com>
Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org
Precedence: bulk

Patch 1/3 is a small cleanup suggested by Matthew Wilcox which doesn't
affect scalability or performance;
Patch 2/3 moves some code in free_pcppages_bulk() outside of zone->lock
and has Mel Gorman's ack;
Patch 3/3 uses prefetch in free_pcppages_bulk() outside of zone->lock to
speedup page merging under zone->lock but Mel Gorman has some concerns.

For details, please see their changelogs.

Changes from v2:
Patch 1/3 is newly added;
Patch 2/3 is patch 1/2 in v2 and doesn't have any change except resolving
conflicts due to the newly added patch 1/3;
Patch 3/3 is patch 2/2 in v2 and only has some changelog updates on
concerns part.
