[PATCH v2 3/3] mm: return zero_resv_unavail optimization

From: Masayoshi Mizuma
Date: Tue Sep 25 2018 - 11:36:09 EST


From: Pavel Tatashin <pavel.tatashin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

When checking for valid pfns in zero_resv_unavail(), it is not necessary to
verify that pfns within pageblock_nr_pages ranges are valid, only the first
one needs to be checked. This is because memory for pages are allocated in
contiguous chunks that contain pageblock_nr_pages struct pages.
