Subject: [PATCHv2] mm: No need to check pcp page when free it to buddy
Date: Thu, 15 Sep 2022 10:40:54 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1663209654-14727-1-git-send-email-zhaoyang.huang@unisoc.com> (raw)

From: Zhaoyang Huang <zhaoyang.huang@unisoc.com>

The pages on pcp list have been checked the validity via bellowing call chain.
It is no need to check it again when free them back to buddy by free_pcppages_bulk.

free_unref_page\free_unref_page_list
{
...
	//page's validity is checked here
	if (!free_unref_page_prepare(page, pfn, order))
		return;
...
	//page added to pcp->lists and status is ready for moving to buddy
	list_add(&page->lru, &pcp->lists[pindex]);
