Subject: [PATCH 06/10] x86/mm: stop marking page tables as MIX_SECTION_INFO
Date: Wed, 08 Jul 2026 16:11:01 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260708-bootmem_info_part2-v1-6-156ce4986598@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260708-bootmem_info_part2-v1-0-156ce4986598@kernel.org>

There is no good reason to mark boot page tables as MIX_SECTION_INFO: we
only free boot page tables when they are completely empty, and memory
offlining/hotunplug doesn't benefit from it in any way.

So just stop marking page tables as MIX_SECTION_INFO. In
free_pagetable(), we can now simply free reserved pages directly.
