[PATCH 2/3 v2] mm: Reorg code to allow i_mmap_mutex acquisition tobe done by caller of page_referenced & try_to_unmap

From: Tim Chen
Date: Mon Sep 10 2012 - 12:19:21 EST


We reorganize the page_referenced and try_to_unmap code to determine
explicitly if mapping->i_mmap_mutex needs to be acquired. This allows
us to acquire the mutex for multiple pages in batch. We can call
__page_referenced or __try_to_unmap with the mutex already acquired so
the mutex doesn't have to be acquired multiple times.
