Neil Brown raised concerns about callers of reclaim_throttle specifying
a timeout value. The original timeout values to congestion_wait() were
probably pulled out of thin air or copy&pasted from somewhere else.
This patch centralises the timeout values and selects a timeout based on
the reason for reclaim throttling. These figures are also pulled out of
the same thin air but better values may be derived
Running a workload that is throttling for inappropriate periods and
tracing mm_vmscan_throttled can be used to pick a more appropriate
value. Excessive throttling would pick a lower timeout where as
excessive CPU usage in reclaim context would select a larger timeout.
Ideally a large value would always be used and the wakeups would occur
before a timeout but that requires careful testing.

Patch series "mm: remove pfn_valid_within() and CONFIG_HOLES_IN_ZONE".
After recent updates to freeing unused parts of the memory map, no
architecture can have holes in the memory map within a pageblock. This
makes pfn_valid_within() check and CONFIG_HOLES_IN_ZONE configuration
option redundant.
The first patch removes them both in a mechanical way and the second patch
simplifies memory_hotplug::test_pages_in_a_zone() that had
pfn_valid_within() surrounded by more logic than simple if.
This patch (of 2):
After recent changes in freeing of the unused parts of the memory map and
rework of pfn_valid() in arm and arm64 there are no architectures that can
have holes in the memory map within a pageblock and so nothing can enable
CONFIG_HOLES_IN_ZONE which guards non trivial implementation of
pfn_valid_within().
With that, pfn_valid_within() is always hardwired to 1 and can be
completely removed.
Remove calls to pfn_valid_within() and CONFIG_HOLES_IN_ZONE.

The proactive compaction[1] gets triggered for every 500msec and run
compaction on the node for COMPACTION_HPAGE_ORDER (usually order-9) pages
based on the value set to sysctl.compaction_proactiveness. Triggering the
compaction for every 500msec in search of COMPACTION_HPAGE_ORDER pages is
not needed for all applications, especially on the embedded system
usecases which may have few MB's of RAM. Enabling the proactive
compaction in its state will endup in running almost always on such
systems.
Other side, proactive compaction can still be very much useful for getting
a set of higher order pages in some controllable manner(controlled by
using the sysctl.compaction_proactiveness). So, on systems where enabling
the proactive compaction always may proove not required, can trigger the
same from user space on write to its sysctl interface. As an example, say
app launcher decide to launch the memory heavy application which can be
launched fast if it gets more higher order pages thus launcher can prepare
the system in advance by triggering the proactive compaction from
userspace.
This triggering of proactive compaction is done on a write to
sysctl.compaction_proactiveness by user.

By definition, COMPACT[STALL|FAIL] events needs to be counted when there
is 'At least in one zone compaction wasn't deferred or skipped from the
direct compaction'. And when compaction is skipped or deferred,
COMPACT_SKIPPED will be returned but it will still go and update these
compaction events which is wrong in the sense that COMPACT[STALL|FAIL]
is counted without even trying the compaction.
Correct this by skipping the counting of these events when
COMPACT_SKIPPED is returned for compaction. This indirectly also avoid
the unnecessary try into the get_page_from_freelist() when compaction is
not even tried.
There is a corner case where compaction is skipped but still count
COMPACTSTALL event, which is that IRQ came and freed the page and the
same is captured in capture_control.

alloc_contig_range will fail if it ever sees a HugeTLB page within the
range we are trying to allocate, even when that page is free and can be
easily reallocated.
This has proved to be problematic for some users of alloc_contic_range,
e.g: CMA and virtio-mem, where those would fail the call even when those
pages lay in ZONE_MOVABLE and are free.
We can do better by trying to replace such page.
Free hugepages are tricky to handle so as to no userspace application
notices disruption, we need to replace the current free hugepage with a
new one.
In order to do that, a new function called alloc_and_dissolve_huge_page is
introduced. This function will first try to get a new fresh hugepage, and
if it succeeds, it will replace the old one in the free hugepage pool.
The free page replacement is done under hugetlb_lock, so no external users
of hugetlb will notice the change. To allocate the new huge page, we use
alloc_buddy_huge_page(), so we do not have to deal with any counters, and
prep_new_huge_page() is not called. This is valulable because in case we
need to free the new page, we only need to call __free_pages().
Once we know that the page to be replaced is a genuine 0-refcounted huge
page, we remove the old page from the freelist by remove_hugetlb_page().
Then, we can call __prep_new_huge_page() and
__prep_account_new_huge_page() for the new huge page to properly
initialize it and increment the hstate->nr_huge_pages counter (previously
decremented by remove_hugetlb_page()). Once done, the page is enqueued by
enqueue_huge_page() and it is ready to be used.
There is one tricky case when page's refcount is 0 because it is in the
process of being released. A missing PageHugeFreed bit will tell us that
freeing is in flight so we retry after dropping the hugetlb_lock. The
race window should be small and the next retry should make a forward
progress.
E.g:
CPU0 CPU1
free_huge_page() isolate_or_dissolve_huge_page
PageHuge() == T
alloc_and_dissolve_huge_page
alloc_buddy_huge_page()
spin_lock_irq(hugetlb_lock)
// PageHuge() && !PageHugeFreed &&
// !PageCount()
spin_unlock_irq(hugetlb_lock)
spin_lock_irq(hugetlb_lock)
1) update_and_free_page
PageHuge() == F
__free_pages()
2) enqueue_huge_page
SetPageHugeFreed()
spin_unlock_irq(&hugetlb_lock)
spin_lock_irq(hugetlb_lock)
1) PageHuge() == F (freed by case#1 from CPU0)
2) PageHuge() == T
PageHugeFreed() == T
- proceed with replacing the page
In the case above we retry as the window race is quite small and we have
high chances to succeed next time.
With regard to the allocation, we restrict it to the node the page belongs
to with __GFP_THISNODE, meaning we do not fallback on other node's zones.
Note that gigantic hugetlb pages are fenced off since there is a cyclic
dependency between them and alloc_contig_range.

Currently, isolate_migratepages_{range,block} and their callers use a pfn
== 0 vs pfn != 0 scheme to let the caller know whether there was any error
during isolation.
This does not work as soon as we need to start reporting different error
codes and make sure we pass them down the chain, so they are properly
interpreted by functions like e.g: alloc_contig_range.
Let us rework isolate_migratepages_{range,block} so we can report error
codes. Since isolate_migratepages_block will stop returning the next pfn
to be scanned, we reuse the cc->migrate_pfn field to keep track of that.
