Subject: [PATCH v1 06/23] vmw_balloon: stop using the balloon_dev_info lock
Date: Tue, 21 Oct 2025 14:59:11 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251021125929.377194-7-david@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251021125929.377194-1-david@redhat.com>

Let's not piggy-back on the existing lock and use a separate lock for the
huge page list.

This is a preparation for changing the locking used to protect
balloon_dev_info.

While at it, talk about "page migration" instead of "page compaction".
We'll change that in core code soon as well.
