Anshuman Khandual 94310cbcaa mm/madvise: enable (soft|hard) offline of HugeTLB pages at PGD level
Though migrating gigantic HugeTLB pages does not sound much like real
world use case, they can be affected by memory errors.  Hence migration
at the PGD level HugeTLB pages should be supported just to enable soft
and hard offline use cases.

While allocating the new gigantic HugeTLB page, it should not matter
whether new page comes from the same node or not.  There would be very
few gigantic pages on the system afterall, we should not be bothered
about node locality when trying to save a big page from crashing.

This change renames dequeu_huge_page_node() function as dequeue_huge
_page_node_exact() preserving it's original functionality.  Now the new
dequeue_huge_page_node() function scans through all available online nodes
to allocate a huge page for the NUMA_NO_NODE case and just falls back
calling dequeu_huge_page_node_exact() for all other cases.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
