Subject: [PATCH v4 08/13] mm/mempolicy: Create a page allocator for policy
Date:   Wed, 17 Mar 2021 11:40:05 +0800

From: Ben Widawsky <ben.widawsky@intel.com>

Add a helper function which takes care of handling multiple preferred
nodes. It will be called by future patches that need to handle this,
specifically VMA based page allocation, and task based page allocation.
Huge pages don't quite fit the same pattern because they use different
underlying page allocation functions. This consumes the previous
interleave policy specific allocation function to make a one stop shop
for policy based allocation.

With this, MPOL_PREFERRED_MANY's semantic is more like MPOL_PREFERRED
that it will first try the preferred node/nodes, and fallback to all
other nodes when first try fails. Thanks to Michal Hocko for suggestions
on this.

For now, only interleaved policy will be used so there should be no
functional change yet. However, if bisection points to issues in the
next few commits, it was likely the fault of this patch.

Similar functionality is offered via policy_node() and
policy_nodemask(). By themselves however, neither can achieve this
fallback style of sets of nodes.

[ Feng: for the first try, add NOWARN flag, and skip the direct reclaim
  to speedup allocation in some case ]
