__GFP_HARDWALL means that we will be respecting the cpuset of the caller
when allocating a page. However, when we are migrating remote allocations
(pages allocated from other context), the cpuset of the current context
is irrelevant.

For memory offlining + alloc_contig_*(), this is rather obvious. There
might be other such page migration users, let's start with the obvious
ones.

I talked to RH IT, and it looks like the mails get delivered to 
linux-mm@kvack.org just fine, and linux-mm decides to silently drop them.

Does anybody know who maintains linux-mm@kvack.org? I wrote a mail to 
mbot@kvack.org, but I am pretty sure that is the wrong address.

Messages were being dumped into a spam folder as the upstream spam
filtering service used for kvack.org was incorrectly tagging them as spam.
The folder where these messages were being quarantined in was not the one
being checked for the last few months due to the spam tagging changing
back on September 8th.

Use owner-linux-mm@kvack.org, which has been in place since the mailing
list was first created.  That is the sender of every mailing list message.

Unfortunately, the issue was not flagged to me until today.  The mailing
list footers that used to let people know about the mailing list contact
info previously had to be removed due to the implementation of DKIM
enforcement.  Even sending emails to majordomo@ per the List-Subscribe:
and List-Unsubscribe: headers would have gotten my attention.

mbot@kvack.org is a spam trap.  Do not send emails there unless you want
to be marked as a spam sender.

> AFAIK it's Benjamin, CC'd

It should now be fixed as I have tweaked the spam filtering rules.  The
messages misfiled as spam since September 8th have now been delivered.
I'm shocked that nobody bothered reporting this until now.  Please do not
report mailing list issues to the mailing list.  I simply do not have the
time / energy to scan the thousands of messages that fly by every week.
Cheers,

Ah that explains it,

Yeah, I tried hard finding a contact, and apparently ...

... all I found was a trap :)

(guess I'm now a swam sender ;) )

Thanks!

Hm, I sent quite a bunch of patches after September 8th, and I think 
they mostly got delivered. For me, it started ~1 week ago.

Now that I know how to contact you, that will obviously be my first choice.

Thanks!
