      mm/mlock.c: document scary-looking stack expansion mlock chain · 4805b02e
      Johannes Weiner authored
      The fact that mlock calls get_user_pages, and get_user_pages might call
      mlock when expanding a stack looks like a potential recursion.
      
      However, mlock makes sure the requested range is already contained
      within a vma, so no stack expansion will actually happen from mlock.
      
      Should this ever change: the stack expansion mlocks only the newly
      expanded range and so will not result in recursive expansion.

      mm: refactor inactive_file_is_low() to use get_lru_size() · e3790144
      Johannes Weiner authored
      An inactive file list is considered low when its active counterpart is
      bigger, regardless of whether it is a global zone LRU list or a memcg
      zone LRU list.  The only difference is in how the LRU size is assessed.
      
      get_lru_size() does the right thing for both global and memcg reclaim
      situations.
      
      Get rid of inactive_file_is_low_global() and
      mem_cgroup_inactive_file_is_low() by using get_lru_size() and compare
      the numbers in common code.

      ksm: stop hotremove lockdep warning · ef4d43a8
      Hugh Dickins authored
      Complaints are rare, but lockdep still does not understand the way
      ksm_memory_callback(MEM_GOING_OFFLINE) takes ksm_thread_mutex, and holds
      it until the ksm_memory_callback(MEM_OFFLINE): that appears to be a
      problem because notifier callbacks are made under down_read of
      blocking_notifier_head->rwsem (so first the mutex is taken while holding
      the rwsem, then later the rwsem is taken while still holding the mutex);
      but is not in fact a problem because mem_hotplug_mutex is held
      throughout the dance.
      
      There was an attempt to fix this with mutex_lock_nested(); but if that
      happened to fool lockdep two years ago, apparently it does so no longer.
      
      I had hoped to eradicate this issue in extending KSM page migration not
      to need the ksm_thread_mutex.  But then realized that although the page
      migration itself is safe, we do still need to lock out ksmd and other
      users of get_ksm_page() while offlining memory - at some point between
      MEM_GOING_OFFLINE and MEM_OFFLINE, the struct pages themselves may
      vanish, and get_ksm_page()'s accesses to them become a violation.
      
      So, give up on holding ksm_thread_mutex itself from MEM_GOING_OFFLINE to
      MEM_OFFLINE, and add a KSM_RUN_OFFLINE flag, and wait_while_offlining()
      checks, to achieve the same lockout without being caught by lockdep.
      This is less elegant for KSM, but it's more important to keep lockdep
      useful to other users - and I apologize for how long it took to fix.

      No functional change, but the only purpose of the offlining argument to
      migrate_pages() etc, was to ensure that __unmap_and_move() could migrate a

      other callers.  Now all cases are safe, remove the arg.

      ksm: enable KSM page migration · b79bc0a0
      Hugh Dickins authored
      Migration of KSM pages is now safe: remove the PageKsm restrictions from
      mempolicy.c and migrate.c.
      
      But keep PageKsm out of __unmap_and_move()'s anon_vma contortions, which
      are irrelevant to KSM: it looks as if that code was preventing hotremove
      migration of KSM pages, unless they happened to be in swapcache.
      
      There is some question as to whether enforcing a NUMA mempolicy migration
      ought to migrate KSM pages, mapped into entirely unrelated processes; but
      moving page_mapcount > 1 is only permitted with MPOL_MF_MOVE_ALL anyway,
      and it seems reasonable to assume that you wouldn't set MADV_MERGEABLE on
      any area where this is a worry.

      ksm: make !merge_across_nodes migration safe · 4146d2d6
      Hugh Dickins authored
      The new KSM NUMA merge_across_nodes knob introduces a problem, when it's
      set to non-default 0: if a KSM page is migrated to a different NUMA node,
      how do we migrate its stable node to the right tree?  And what if that
      collides with an existing stable node?
      
      ksm_migrate_page() can do no more than it's already doing, updating
      stable_node->kpfn: the stable tree itself cannot be manipulated without
      holding ksm_thread_mutex.  So accept that a stable tree may temporarily
      indicate a page belonging to the wrong NUMA node, leave updating until the
      next pass of ksmd, just be careful not to merge other pages on to a
      misplaced page.  Note nid of holding tree in stable_node, and recognize
      that it will not always match nid of kpfn.
      
      A misplaced KSM page is discovered, either when ksm_do_scan() next comes
      around to one of its rmap_items (we now have to go to cmp_and_merge_page
      even on pages in a stable tree), or when stable_tree_search() arrives at a
      matching node for another page, and this node page is found misplaced.
      
      In each case, move the misplaced stable_node to a list of migrate_nodes
      (and use the address of migrate_nodes as magic by which to identify them):
      we don't need them in a tree.  If stable_tree_search() finds no match for
      a page, but it's currently exiled to this list, then slot its stable_node
      right there into the tree, bringing all of its mappings with it; otherwise
      they get migrated one by one to the original page of the colliding node.
      stable_tree_search() is now modelled more like stable_tree_insert(), in
      order to handle these insertions of migrated nodes.
      
      remove_node_from_stable_tree(), remove_all_stable_nodes() and
      ksm_check_stable_tree() have to handle the migrate_nodes list as well as
      the stable tree itself.  Less obviously, we do need to prune the list of
      stale entries from time to time (scan_get_next_rmap_item() does it once
      each full scan): whereas stale nodes in the stable tree get naturally
      pruned as searches try to brush past them, these migrate_nodes may get
      forgotten and accumulate.

      ksm: make KSM page migration possible · c8d6553b
      Hugh Dickins authored
      KSM page migration is already supported in the case of memory hotremove,
      which takes the ksm_thread_mutex across all its migrations to keep life
      simple.
      
      But the new KSM NUMA merge_across_nodes knob introduces a problem, when
      it's set to non-default 0: if a KSM page is migrated to a different NUMA
      node, how do we migrate its stable node to the right tree?  And what if
      that collides with an existing stable node?
      
      So far there's no provision for that, and this patch does not attempt to
      deal with it either.  But how will I test a solution, when I don't know
      how to hotremove memory?  The best answer is to enable KSM page migration
      in all cases now, and test more common cases.  With THP and compaction
      added since KSM came in, page migration is now mainstream, and it's a
      shame that a KSM page can frustrate freeing a page block.
      
      Without worrying about merge_across_nodes 0 for now, this patch gets KSM
      page migration working reliably for default merge_across_nodes 1 (but
      leave the patch enabling it until near the end of the series).
      
      It's much simpler than I'd originally imagined, and does not require an
      additional tier of locking: page migration relies on the page lock, KSM
      page reclaim relies on the page lock, the page lock is enough for KSM page
      migration too.
      
      Almost all the care has to be in get_ksm_page(): that's the function which
      worries about when a stable node is stale and should be freed, now it also
      has to worry about the KSM page being migrated.
      
      The only new overhead is an additional put/get/lock/unlock_page when
      stable_tree_search() arrives at a matching node: to make sure migration
      respects the raised page count, and so does not migrate the page while
      we're busy with it here.  That's probably avoidable, either by changing
      internal interfaces from using kpage to stable_node, or by moving the
      ksm_migrate_page() callsite into a page_freeze_refs() section (even if not
      swapcache); but this works well, I've no urge to pull it apart now.
      
      (Descents of the stable tree may pass through nodes whose KSM pages are
      under migration: being unlocked, the raised page count does not prevent
      that, nor need it: it's safe to memcmp against either old or new page.)
      
      You might worry about mremap, and whether page migration's rmap_walk to
      remove migration entries will find all the KSM locations where it inserted
      earlier: that should already be handled, by the satisfyingly heavy hammer
      of move_vma()'s call to ksm_madvise(,,,MADV_UNMERGEABLE,).

      ksm: remove old stable nodes more thoroughly · cbf86cfe
      Hugh Dickins authored
      Switching merge_across_nodes after running KSM is liable to oops on stale
      nodes still left over from the previous stable tree.  It's not something
      that people will often want to do, but it would be lame to demand a reboot
      when they're trying to determine which merge_across_nodes setting is best.
      
      How can this happen?  We only permit switching merge_across_nodes when
      pages_shared is 0, and usually set run 2 to force that beforehand, which
      ought to unmerge everything: yet oopses still occur when you then run 1.
      
      Three causes:
      
      1. The old stable tree (built according to the inverse
         merge_across_nodes) has not been fully torn down.  A stable node
         lingers until get_ksm_page() notices that the page it references no
         longer references it: but the page is not necessarily freed as soon as
         expected, particularly when swapcache.
      
         Fix this with a pass through the old stable tree, applying
         get_ksm_page() to each of the remaining nodes (most found stale and
         removed immediately), with forced removal of any left over.  Unless the
         page is still mapped: I've not seen that case, it shouldn't occur, but
         better to WARN_ON_ONCE and EBUSY than BUG.
      
      2. __ksm_enter() has a nice little optimization, to insert the new mm
         just behind ksmd's cursor, so there's a full pass for it to stabilize
         (or be removed) before ksmd addresses it.  Nice when ksmd is running,
         but not so nice when we're trying to unmerge all mms: we were missing
         those mms forked and inserted behind the unmerge cursor.  Easily fixed
         by inserting at the end when KSM_RUN_UNMERGE.
      
      3.  It is possible for a KSM page to be faulted back from swapcache
         into an mm, just after unmerge_and_remove_all_rmap_items() scanned past
         it.  Fix this by copying on fault when KSM_RUN_UNMERGE: but that is
         private to ksm.c, so dissolve the distinction between
         ksm_might_need_to_copy() and ksm_does_need_to_copy(), doing it all in
         the one call into ksm.c.
      
      A long outstanding, unrelated bugfix sneaks in with that third fix:
      ksm_does_need_to_copy() would copy from a !PageUptodate page (implying I/O
      error when read in from swap) to a page which it then marks Uptodate.  Fix
      this case by not copying, letting do_swap_page() discover the error.

      ksm: get_ksm_page locked · 8aafa6a4
      Hugh Dickins authored
      In some places where get_ksm_page() is used, we need the page to be locked.
      
      When KSM migration is fully enabled, we shall want that to make sure that
      the page just acquired cannot be migrated beneath us (raised page count is
      only effective when there is serialization to make sure migration
      notices).  Whereas when navigating through the stable tree, we certainly
      do not want to lock each node (raised page count is enough to guarantee
      the memcmps, even if page is migrated to another node).
      
      Since we're about to add another use case, add the locked argument to
      get_ksm_page() now.
      
      Hmm, what's that rcu_read_lock() about?  Complete misunderstanding, I
      really got the wrong end of the stick on that!  There's a configuration in
      which page_cache_get_speculative() can do something cheaper than
      get_page_unless_zero(), relying on its caller's rcu_read_lock() to have
      disabled preemption for it.  There's no need for rcu_read_lock() around
      get_page_unless_zero() (and mapping checks) here.  Cut out that silliness
      before making this any harder to understand.

      ksm: allow trees per NUMA node · 90bd6fd3
      Petr Holasek authored
      Here's a KSM series, based on mmotm 2013-01-23-17-04: starting with
      Petr's v7 "KSM: numa awareness sysfs knob"; then fixing the two issues
      we had with that, fully enabling KSM page migration on the way.
      
      (A different kind of KSM/NUMA issue which I've certainly not begun to
      address here: when KSM pages are unmerged, there's usually no sense in
      preferring to allocate the new pages local to the caller's node.)
      
      This patch:
      
      Introduces new sysfs boolean knob /sys/kernel/mm/ksm/merge_across_nodes
      which control merging pages across different numa nodes.  When it is set
      to zero only pages from the same node are merged, otherwise pages from
      all nodes can be merged together (default behavior).
      
      Typical use-case could be a lot of KVM guests on NUMA machine and cpus
      from more distant nodes would have significant increase of access
      latency to the merged ksm page.  Sysfs knob was choosen for higher
      variability when some users still prefers higher amount of saved
      physical memory regardless of access latency.
      
      Every numa node has its own stable & unstable trees because of faster
      searching and inserting.  Changing of merge_across_nodes value is
      possible only when there are not any ksm shared pages in system.
      
      I've tested this patch on numa machines with 2, 4 and 8 nodes and
      measured speed of memory access inside of KVM guests with memory pinned
      to one of nodes with this benchmark:
      
        http://pholasek.fedorapeople.org/alloc_pg.c
      
      Population standard deviations of access times in percentage of average
      were following:
      
      merge_across_nodes=1
      2 nodes 1.4%
      4 nodes 1.6%
      8 nodes	1.7%
      
      merge_across_nodes=0
      2 nodes	1%
      4 nodes	0.32%
      8 nodes	0.018%
      
      RFC: https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/11/30/91
      v1: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/1/23/46
      v2: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/6/29/105

      v7: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/12/27/225
      
      Hugh notes that this patch brings two problems, whose solution needs
      further support in mm/ksm.c, which follows in subsequent patches:
      
      1) switching merge_across_nodes after running KSM is liable to oops
         on stale nodes still left over from the previous stable tree;
      
      2) memory hotremove may migrate KSM pages, but there is no provision
         here for !merge_across_nodes to migrate nodes to the proper tree.

      mm: rename page struct field helpers · 22b751c3
      Mel Gorman authored
      The function names page_xchg_last_nid(), page_last_nid() and
      reset_page_last_nid() were judged to be inconsistent so rename them to a
      struct_field_op style pattern.  As it looked jarring to have
      reset_page_mapcount() and page_nid_reset_last() beside each other in
      memmap_init_zone(), this patch also renames reset_page_mapcount() to
      page_mapcount_reset().  There are others like init_page_count() but as
      it is used throughout the arch code a rename would likely cause more
      conflicts than it is worth.

      memcg: replace cgroup_lock with memcg specific memcg_lock · 0999821b
      Glauber Costa authored
      After the preparation work done in earlier patches, the cgroup_lock can
      be trivially replaced with a memcg-specific lock.  This is an automatic
      translation at every site where the values involved were queried.
      
      The sites where values are written, however, used to be naturally called
      under cgroup_lock.  This is the case for instance in the css_online
      callback.  For those, we now need to explicitly add the memcg lock.
      
      With this, all the calls to cgroup_lock outside cgroup core are gone.

      memcg: fast hierarchy-aware child test · b5f99b53
      Glauber Costa authored
      Currently, we use cgroups' provided list of children to verify if it is
      safe to proceed with any value change that is dependent on the cgroup
      being empty.
      
      This is less than ideal, because it enforces a dependency over cgroup
      core that we would be better off without.  The solution proposed here is
      to iterate over the child cgroups and if any is found that is already
      online, we bounce and return: we don't really care how many children we
      have, only if we have any.
      
      This is also made to be hierarchy aware.  IOW, cgroups with hierarchy
      disabled, while they still exist, will be considered for the purpose of
      this interface as having no children.

      memcg: split part of memcg creation to css_online · d142e3e6
      Glauber Costa authored
      This patch is a preparatory work for later locking rework to get rid of
      big cgroup lock from memory controller code.
      
      The memory controller uses some tunables to adjust its operation.  Those
      tunables are inherited from parent to children upon children
      intialization.  For most of them, the value cannot be changed after the
      parent has a new children.
      
      cgroup core splits initialization in two phases: css_alloc and css_online.
      After css_alloc, the memory allocation and basic initialization are done.
      But the new group is not yet visible anywhere, not even for cgroup core
      code.  It is only somewhere between css_alloc and css_online that it is
      inserted into the internal children lists.  Copying tunable values in
      css_alloc will lead to inconsistent values: the children will copy the old
      parent values, that can change between the copy and the moment in which
      the groups is linked to any data structure that can indicate the presence
      of children.

      memcg: prevent changes to move_charge_at_immigrate during task attach · ee5e8472
      Glauber Costa authored
      In memcg, we use the cgroup_lock basically to synchronize against
      attaching new children to a cgroup.  We do this because we rely on
      cgroup core to provide us with this information.
      
      We need to guarantee that upon child creation, our tunables are
      consistent.  For those, the calls to cgroup_lock() all live in handlers
      like mem_cgroup_hierarchy_write(), where we change a tunable in the
      group that is hierarchy-related.  For instance, the use_hierarchy flag
      cannot be changed if the cgroup already have children.
      
      Furthermore, those values are propagated from the parent to the child
      when a new child is created.  So if we don't lock like this, we can end
      up with the following situation:
      
      A                                   B
       memcg_css_alloc()                       mem_cgroup_hierarchy_write()
       copy use hierarchy from parent          change use hierarchy in parent
       finish creation.
      
      This is mainly because during create, we are still not fully connected
      to the css tree.  So all iterators and the such that we could use, will
      fail to show that the group has children.
      
      My observation is that all of creation can proceed in parallel with
      those tasks, except value assignment.  So what this patch series does is
      to first move all value assignment that is dependent on parent values
      from css_alloc to css_online, where the iterators all work, and then we
      lock only the value assignment.  This will guarantee that parent and
      children always have consistent values.  Together with an online test,
      that can be derived from the observation that the refcount of an online
      memcg can be made to be always positive, we should be able to
      synchronize our side without the cgroup lock.
      
      This patch:
      
      Currently, we rely on the cgroup_lock() to prevent changes to
      move_charge_at_immigrate during task migration.  However, this is only
      needed because the current strategy keeps checking this value throughout
      the whole process.  Since all we need is serialization, one needs only
      to guarantee that whatever decision we made in the beginning of a
      specific migration is respected throughout the process.
      
      We can achieve this by just saving it in mc.  By doing this, no kind of
      locking is needed.

      memcg: reduce the size of struct memcg 244-fold. · 45cf7ebd
      Glauber Costa authored
      In order to maintain all the memcg bookkeeping, we need per-node
      descriptors, which will in turn contain a per-zone descriptor.
      
      Because we want to statically allocate those, this array ends up being
      very big.  Part of the reason is that we allocate something large enough
      to hold MAX_NUMNODES, the compile time constant that holds the maximum
      number of nodes we would ever consider.
      
      However, we can do better in some cases if the firmware help us.  This
      is true for modern x86 machines; coincidentally one of the architectures
      in which MAX_NUMNODES tends to be very big.
      
      By using the firmware-provided maximum number of nodes instead of
      MAX_NUMNODES, we can reduce the memory footprint of struct memcg
      considerably.  In the extreme case in which we have only one node, this
      reduces the size of the structure from ~ 64k to ~2k.  This is
      particularly important because it means that we will no longer resort to
      the vmalloc area for the struct memcg on defconfigs.  We also have
      enough room for an extra node and still be outside vmalloc.
      
      One also has to keep in mind that with the industry's ability to fit
      more processors in a die as fast as the FED prints money, a nodes = 2
      configuration is already respectably big.

      mm: uninline page_xchg_last_nid() · 4468b8f1
      Mel Gorman authored
      Andrew Morton pointed out that page_xchg_last_nid() and
      reset_page_last_nid() were "getting nuttily large" and asked that it be
      investigated.
      
      reset_page_last_nid() is on the page free path and it would be
      unfortunate to make that path more expensive than it needs to be.  Due
      to the internal use of page_xchg_last_nid() it is already too expensive
      but fortunately, it should also be impossible for the page->flags to be
      updated in parallel when we call reset_page_last_nid().  Instead of
      unlining the function, it uses a simplier implementation that assumes no
      parallel updates and should now be sufficiently short for inlining.
      
      page_xchg_last_nid() is called in paths that are already quite expensive
      (splitting huge page, fault handling, migration) and it is reasonable to
      uninline.  There was not really a good place to place the function but
      mm/mmzone.c was the closest fit IMO.
      
      This patch saved 128 bytes of text in the vmlinux file for the kernel
      configuration I used for testing automatic NUMA balancing.

      memcg: do not create memsw files if swap accounting is disabled · 2d11085e
      Michal Hocko authored
      Zhouping Liu has reported that memsw files are exported even though swap
      accounting is runtime disabled if MEMCG_SWAP is enabled.  This behavior
      has been introduced by commit af36f906 ("memcg: always create memsw
      files if CGROUP_MEM_RES_CTLR_SWAP") and it causes any attempt to open
      the file to return EOPNOTSUPP.  Although EOPNOTSUPP should say be clear
      that memsw operations are not supported in the given configuration it is
      fair to say that this behavior could be quite confusing.
      
      Let's tear memsw files out of default cgroup files and add them only if
      the swap accounting is really enabled (either by MEMCG_SWAP_ENABLED or
      swapaccount=1 boot parameter).  We can hook into mem_cgroup_init which
      is called when the memcg subsystem is initialized and which happens
      after boot command line is processed.

      swap: add per-partition lock for swapfile · ec8acf20
      Shaohua Li authored
      swap_lock is heavily contended when I test swap to 3 fast SSD (even
      slightly slower than swap to 2 such SSD).  The main contention comes
      from swap_info_get().  This patch tries to fix the gap with adding a new
      per-partition lock.
      
      Global data like nr_swapfiles, total_swap_pages, least_priority and
      swap_list are still protected by swap_lock.
      
      nr_swap_pages is an atomic now, it can be changed without swap_lock.  In
      theory, it's possible get_swap_page() finds no swap pages but actually
      there are free swap pages.  But sounds not a big problem.
      
      Accessing partition specific data (like scan_swap_map and so on) is only
      protected by swap_info_struct.lock.
      
      Changing swap_info_struct.flags need hold swap_lock and
      swap_info_struct.lock, because scan_scan_map() will check it.  read the
      flags is ok with either the locks hold.
      
      If both swap_lock and swap_info_struct.lock must be hold, we always hold
      the former first to avoid deadlock.
      
      swap_entry_free() can change swap_list.  To delete that code, we add a
      new highest_priority_index.  Whenever get_swap_page() is called, we
      check it.  If it's valid, we use it.
      
      It's a pity get_swap_page() still holds swap_lock().  But in practice,
      swap_lock() isn't heavily contended in my test with this patch (or I can
      say there are other much more heavier bottlenecks like TLB flush).  And
      BTW, looks get_swap_page() doesn't really need the lock.  We never free
      swap_info[] and we check SWAP_WRITEOK flag.  The only risk without the
      lock is we could swapout to some low priority swap, but we can quickly
      recover after several rounds of swap, so sounds not a big deal to me.
      But I'd prefer to fix this if it's a real problem.
      
      "swap: make each swap partition have one address_space" improved the
      swapout speed from 1.7G/s to 2G/s.  This patch further improves the
      speed to 2.3G/s, so around 15% improvement.  It's a multi-process test,
      so TLB flush isn't the biggest bottleneck before the patches.

      swap: make each swap partition have one address_space · 33806f06
      Shaohua Li authored
      When I use several fast SSD to do swap, swapper_space.tree_lock is
      heavily contended.  This makes each swap partition have one
      address_space to reduce the lock contention.  There is an array of
      address_space for swap.  The swap entry type is the index to the array.
      
      In my test with 3 SSD, this increases the swapout throughput 20%.

      mm: numa: cleanup flow of transhuge page migration · 340ef390
      Hugh Dickins authored
      When correcting commit 04fa5d6a ("mm: migrate: check page_count of
      THP before migrating") Hugh Dickins noted that the control flow for
      transhuge migration was difficult to follow.  Unconditionally calling
      put_page() in numamigrate_isolate_page() made the failure paths of both
      migrate_misplaced_transhuge_page() and migrate_misplaced_page() more
      complex that they should be.  Further, he was extremely wary that an
      unlock_page() should ever happen after a put_page() even if the
      put_page() should never be the final put_page.
      
      Hugh implemented the following cleanup to simplify the path by calling
      putback_lru_page() inside numamigrate_isolate_page() if it failed to
      isolate and always calling unlock_page() within
      migrate_misplaced_transhuge_page().
      
      There is no functional change after this patch is applied but the code
      is easier to follow and unlock_page() always happens before put_page().

      page->_last_nid fits into page->flags on 64-bit.  The unlikely 32-bit
      NUMA configuration with NUMA Balancing will still need an extra page
      field.  As Peter notes "Completely dropping 32bit support for
      CONFIG_NUMA_BALANCING would simplify things, but it would also remove
      the warning if we grow enough 64bit only page-flags to push the last-cpu
      out."

      mm: numa: handle side-effects in count_vm_numa_events() for !CONFIG_NUMA_BALANCING · 3c0ff468
      Mel Gorman authored
      The current definitions for count_vm_numa_events() is wrong for
      !CONFIG_NUMA_BALANCING as the following would miss the side-effect.
      
      	count_vm_numa_events(NUMA_FOO, bar++);
      
      There are no such users of count_vm_numa_events() but this patch fixes
      it as it is a potential pitfall.  Ideally both would be converted to
      static inline but NUMA_PTE_UPDATES is not defined if
      !CONFIG_NUMA_BALANCING and creating dummy constants just to have a
      static inline would be similarly clumsy.

      mm: numa: take THP into account when migrating pages for NUMA balancing · 3abef4e6
      Mel Gorman authored
      Wanpeng Li pointed out that numamigrate_isolate_page() assumes that only
      one base page is being migrated when in fact it can also be checking
      THP.
      
      The consequences are that a migration will be attempted when a target
      node is nearly full and fail later.  It's unlikely to be user-visible
      but it should be fixed.  While we are there, migrate_balanced_pgdat()
      should treat nr_migrate_pages as an unsigned long as it is treated as a
      watermark.
