[PATCH V3 3/4] mm: reduce try_to_compact_pages parameters

From: Vlastimil Babka
Date: Fri Dec 12 2014 - 11:15:35 EST


Expand the usage of the struct alloc_context introduced in the previous patch
also for calling try_to_compact_pages(), to reduce the number of its
parameters. Since the function is in different compilation module, the
definition of the alloc_context struct is moved to mm.h.

With this change we get simpler code and small savings of code size and stack
usage.
