Subject: [PATCH v3 2/2] mm: Init page count in reserve_bootmem_region when MEMINIT_EARLY
Date:   Tue, 26 Sep 2023 10:33:41 +0800

memmap_init_range() would set page count of all pages, but the free
pages count would be reset in __free_pages_core(). There are opposite
operations. It's unnecessary and time-consuming when it's MEMINIT_EARLY
context.

Init page count in reserve_bootmem_region when in MEMINIT_EARLY context,
and check the page count before reset it.

At the same time, the INIT_LIST_HEAD in reserve_bootmem_region isn't
need, as it already done in __init_single_page.

The following data was tested on an x86 machine with 190GB of RAM.

before:
free_low_memory_core_early()    341ms

after:
free_low_memory_core_early()    285ms

v3: same with v2.
v2: check page count instead of check context before reset it.
v1: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230922070923.355656-1-yajun.deng@linux.dev/
