[patch 112/119] hugetlb, mempolicy: fix the mbind hugetlb migration

[akpm]

From: Michal Hocko <mhocko@suse.com>
Subject: hugetlb, mempolicy: fix the mbind hugetlb migration

do_mbind migration code relies on alloc_huge_page_noerr for hugetlb pages.
alloc_huge_page_noerr uses alloc_huge_page which is a highlevel
allocation function which has to take care of reserves, overcommit or
hugetlb cgroup accounting.  None of that is really required for the page
migration because the new page is only temporal and either will replace
the original page or it will be dropped.  This is essentially as for other
migration call paths and there shouldn't be any reason to handle mbind in
a special way.

The current implementation is even suboptimal because the migration might
fail just because the hugetlb cgroup limit is reached, or the overcommit
is saturated.

Fix this by making mbind like other hugetlb migration paths.  Add a new
migration helper alloc_huge_page_vma as a wrapper around
alloc_huge_page_nodemask with additional mempolicy handling.

alloc_huge_page_noerr has no more users and it can go.
