[PATCH] mm: remove redundant __GFP_NOWARN
Posted by Qianfeng Rong 6 months ago 
Commit 16f5dfbc851b ("gfp: include __GFP_NOWARN in GFP_NOWAIT") made
GFP_NOWAIT implicitly include __GFP_NOWARN.

Therefore, explicit __GFP_NOWARN combined with GFP_NOWAIT (e.g.,
`GFP_NOWAIT | __GFP_NOWARN`) is now redundant.  Let's clean up these
redundant flags across subsystems.

No functional changes.

Maybe

.gfp_mask = (GFP_HIGHUSER_MOVABLE & ~__GFP_RECLAIM) |
                        __GFP_NOWARN | __GFP_NOMEMALLOC | GFP_NOWAIT,

in mm/damon/paddr.c also can be cleaned up to

.gfp_mask = (GFP_HIGHUSER_MOVABLE & ~__GFP_RECLAIM) |
                        | __GFP_NOMEMALLOC | GFP_NOWAIT, 

?

With or without that:

Thank you for catching this, Harry!

FYI, the code has moved into mm/damon/ops-common.c by commit 13dde31db71f
("mm/damon: move migration helpers from paddr to ops-common").  Please feel
free to make the cleanup if anyone willing to.


Thanks,
SJ

Thanks for the reminder.  I did miss one modification spot.  After checking,
I found this code section was moved to mm/damon/ops-common.c.  I'll submit
v2 immediately.
