[PATCH v2] mm/page_alloc: simplify lowmem_reserve max calculation
From: Ye Liu
Date: Thu Aug 14 2025 - 22:39:45 EST
From: Ye Liu <liuye@xxxxxxxxxx>
Use max() to find the maximum lowmem_reserve value and min_t() to
cap it to managed_pages in calculate_totalreserve_pages(), instead
of open-coding the comparisons. No functional change.

Changes in v2:
- Drop unnecessary braces
- Replace "if (max > managed_pages)" with min_t()
- Link to v1:https://lore.kernel.org/all/20250814090053.22241-1-ye.liu@xxxxxxxxx/
