Subject: [PATCH 5/6] ksm: use find_mergeable_vma in try_to_merge_with_ksm_page
Date: Thu, 15 Oct 2015 18:04:24 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1444925065-4841-6-git-send-email-aarcange@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1444925065-4841-1-git-send-email-aarcange@redhat.com>
Doing the VM_MERGEABLE check after the page == kpage check won't
provide any meaningful benefit. The !vma->anon_vma check of
find_mergeable_vma is the only superfluous bit in using
find_mergeable_vma because the !PageAnon check of
try_to_merge_one_page() implicitly checks for that, but it still looks
cleaner to share the same find_mergeable_vma().
