Subject: [PATCH v4 16/18] mm: remove the __GFP_NO_OBJ_EXT flag
Date: Thu, 02 Jul 2026 09:49:47 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260702-alloc-trylock-v4-16-0af8ff387e80@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260702-alloc-trylock-v4-0-0af8ff387e80@google.com>

From: "Vlastimil Babka (SUSE)" <vbabka@kernel.org>

All users of the flag are converted to SLAB_ALLOC_NO_RECURSE or
ALLOC_NO_CODETAG (from __GFP_NO_CODETAG which reused the NO_OBJ_EXT bit).
Free up the flag bit.

Signed-off-by: Vlastimil Babka (SUSE) <vbabka@kernel.org>
[Rebased onto __GFP_NO_CODETAG removal]
Signed-off-by: Brendan Jackman <jackmanb@google.com>
