Zone reclaim has a huge impact on NUMA performance (f.e. our maximum throughput with XFS is raised from 4GB to 6GB/sec / page cache contamination of numa nodes destroys locality if one just does a large copy operation which results in performance dropping for good until reboot).

Simplify migrate_page_add after feedback from Hugh. This also allows us to drop one parameter from migrate_page_add. Signed-off-by: Christoph Lameter <clameter@sgi.com> Cc: Hugh Dickins <hugh@veritas.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

Migration code currently does not take a reference to target page properly, so between unlocking the pte and trying to take a new reference to the page with isolate_lru_page, anything could happen to it. Fix this by holding the pte lock until we get a chance to elevate the refcount. Other small cleanups while we're here.

Ravikiran reports that this variable is bouncing all around nodes on NUMA machines, causing measurable performance problems. Fix that up by only writing to it when it actually changed. And put it in a new cacheline to prevent it sharing with other things (this happened).

Some pcnet32 hardware erroneously has the Vendor ID for Trident. The pcnet32 driver looks for the PCI ethernet class before grabbing the hardware, but the current trident driver does not check against the PCI audio class. This allows the trident driver to claim the pcnet32 hardware. This patch prevents that. This revised version of the OSS Trident patch includes PCI_DEVICE Macro usage.

1) fix "mld_marksources()" to a) send nothing when all queried sources are excluded b) send full exclude report when source queried sources are not excluded c) don't schedule a timer when there's nothing to report 2) fix "add_grec()" to send empty-source records when it should The original check doesn't account for a non-empty source list with all sources inactive; the new code keeps that short-circuit case, and also generates the group header with an empty list if needed. 3) fix mca_crcount decrement to be after add_grec(), which needs its original value 4) add/remove delete records and prevent current advertisements when an exclude-mode filter moves from "active" to "inactive" or vice versa based on new filter additions. Items 1-3 are just IPv4 versions of the IPv6 bugs found by Yan Zheng and fixed earlier. Item #4 is a related bug that affects exclude-mode change records only (but not queries) and also occurs in IPv6 (IPv6 version coming soon).
