[PATCH 2/7] Create the ZONE_EASYRCLM zone

Mel Gorman
2006-02-17T14:16:32Z

This patch adds the ZONE_EASYRCLM zone and updates relevant contants and
helper functions. After this patch is applied, memory that is hot-added on
the x86 will be placed in ZONE_EASYRCLM. Memory hot-added on the ppc64 still
goes to ZONE_DMA.
