[PATCH v4 2/4] mm: convert zone->managed_pages to atomic variable

From: Arun KS
Date: Mon Nov 12 2018 - 01:08:12 EST


totalram_pages, zone->managed_pages and totalhigh_pages updates
are protected by managed_page_count_lock, but readers never care
about it. Convert these variables to atomic to avoid readers
potentially seeing a store tear.

This patch converts zone->managed_pages. Subsequent patches will
convert totalram_panges, totalhigh_pages and eventually
managed_page_count_lock will be removed.

Main motivation was that managed_page_count_lock handling was
complicating things. It was discussed in length here,
https://lore.kernel.org/patchwork/patch/995739/#1181785
So it seemes better to remove the lock and convert variables
to atomic, with preventing poteintial store-to-read tearing as
a bonus.
