[RFC patch 5/7] thp, s390: thp pagetable pre-allocation for System z

From: Gerald Schaefer
Date: Thu Aug 23 2012 - 13:19:05 EST


This patch is part of the architecture backend for thp on System z.
It provides the pagetable pre-allocation functions pgtable_deposit()
and pgtable_withdraw(). Unlike other archs, s390 has no struct page *
as pgtable_t, but rather a pointer to the page table. So instead of
saving the pagetable pre-allocation list info inside the struct page,
it is being saved within the pagetable itself.
