[PATCH v2 01/10] thp: huge zero page: basic preparation

From: Kirill A. Shutemov <hidden>
Date: 2012-09-10 13:13:25
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: memory management, memory management - thp (transparent huge page), the rest · Maintainers: Andrew Morton, David Hildenbrand, Lorenzo Stoakes, Linus Torvalds

From: "Kirill A. Shutemov" <redacted>

For now let's allocate the page on hugepage_init(). We'll switch to lazy
allocation later.

We are not going to map the huge zero page until we can handle it
properly on all code paths.

is_huge_zero_{pfn,pmd}() functions will be used by following patches to
check whether the pfn/pmd is huge zero page.
