Re: [PATCH v4 1/4] mm: fix tracing in free_pcppages_bulk()

Hi Bartlomiej,

page->private gets re-used in __free_one_page() to store page order
(so trace_mm_page_pcpu_drain() may print order instead of migratetype)
thus migratetype value must be cached locally.

Fixes regression introduced in a701623 ("mm: fix migratetype bug
which slowed swapping").
I think the regression has been alreadly fixed by following Mincahn's patches.

=> Hi Minchan,

   Am I wrong?

Thanks,
Yasuaki Ishimatsu
