    mm/list_lru.c: use list_lru_walk_one() in list_lru_walk_node() · 87a5ffc1
    Sebastian Andrzej Siewior authored
    Patch series "mm/list_lru: Add list_lru_shrink_walk_irq() and a user".
    
    This series removes the local_irq_disable() around
    list_lru_shrink_walk() (as used by mm/workingset) by adding
    list_lru_shrink_walk_irq().
    
    Vladimir Davydov preferred this over `irq' argument which I added to
    struct list_lru.
    
    The initial post (of this series) received a Reviewed-by tag by Vladimir
    Davydov which I added to each patch of the series.  The series applies
    on top of akpm's tree which has Kirill's shrink_slab series and does not
    clash with it (akpm asked me to wait a week or so and repost it then).
    
    I tested the code paths by triggering the OOM-killer via memory over
    commit and lockdep did not complain (nor did I see any warnings).
    
    This patch (of 4):
    
    list_lru_walk_node() invokes __list_lru_walk_one() with -1 as the
    memcg_idx parameter.  The same can be achieved by list_lru_walk_one() and
    passing NULL as memcg argument which then gets converted into -1.  This is
    a preparation step when the spin_lock() function is lifted to the caller
    of __list_lru_walk_one().  Invoke list_lru_walk_one() instead
    __list_lru_walk_one() when possible.
