mm: page migration avoid touching newpage until no going back
We have had trouble in the past from the way in which page migration's newpage is initialized in dribs and drabs - see commit 8bdd63809160 ("mm: fix direct reclaim writeback regression") which proposed a cleanup. We have no actual problem now, but I think the procedure would be clearer (and alternative get_new_page pools safer to implement) if we assert that newpage is not touched until we are sure that it's going to be used - except for taking the trylock on it in __unmap_and_move(). So shift the early initializations from move_to_new_page() into migrate_page_move_mapping(), mapping and NULL-mapping paths. Similarly migrate_huge_page_move_mapping(), but its NULL-mapping path can just be deleted: you cannot reach hugetlbfs_migrate_page() with a NULL mapping. Adjust stages 3 to 8 in the Documentation file accordingly. Signed-off-by: Hugh Dickins <hughd@google.com> Cc: Christoph Lameter <cl@linux.com> Cc: "Kirill A.
