[RFC PATCH v1 2/7] migrate: implement migrate_misplaced_folios_batch
Posted by Bharata B Rao 1 month, 3 weeks ago
From: Gregory Price <gourry@gourry.net>

A common operation in tiering is to migrate multiple pages at once.
The migrate_misplaced_folio function requires one call for each
individual folio.  Expose a batch-variant of the same call for use
when doing batch migrations.

Is it common now?  If so, you can replace some callers of
migrate_misplaced_folio() with migrate_misplaced_folios_batch().

IMHO, migrate_misplaced_folio() is more concise than
migrate_misplaced_folio function.

In addition to working on a list of folios instead of single folio, I
found there are some difference about memcg counting between
migrate_misplaced_folios_batch() and migrate_misplace_folio().  Why?

And, can we merge the implementation of two functions to reduce code
duplication?
