It is often known at allocation time whether a page may be migrated or not. This patch adds a flag called __GFP_MOVABLE and a new mask called GFP_HIGH_MOVABLE. Allocations using the __GFP_MOVABLE can be either migrated using the page migration mechanism or reclaimed by syncing with backing storage and discarding. An API function very similar to alloc_zeroed_user_highpage() is added for __GFP_MOVABLE allocations called alloc_zeroed_user_highpage_movable(). The flags used by alloc_zeroed_user_highpage() are not changed because it would change the semantics of an existing API. After this patch is applied there are no in-kernel users of alloc_zeroed_user_highpage() so it probably should be marked deprecated if this patch is merged. Note that this patch includes a minor cleanup to the use of __GFP_ZERO in shmem.c to keep all flag modifications to inode->mapping in the shmem_dir_alloc() helper function. This clean-up suggestion is courtesy of Hugh Dickens. Additional credit goes to Christoph Lameter and Linus Torvalds for shaping the concept. Credit to Hugh Dickens for catching issues with shmem swap vector and ramfs allocations.

do_generic_mapping_read currently samples the i_size at the start and doesn't do so again unless it needs to call ->readpage to load a page. After ->readpage it has to re-sample i_size as a truncate may have caused that page to be filled with zeros, and the read() call should not see these. However there are other activities that might cause ->readpage to be called on a page between the time that do_generic_mapping_read samples i_size and when it finds that it has an uptodate page. These include at least read-ahead and possibly another thread performing a read. So do_generic_mapping_read must sample i_size *after* it has an uptodate page. Thus the current sampling at the start and after a read can be replaced with a sampling before the copy-out. The same change applied to __generic_file_splice_read. Note that this fixes any race with truncate_complete_page, but does not fix a possible race with truncate_partial_page. If a partial truncate happens after do_generic_mapping_read samples i_size and before the copy_out, the nuls that truncate_partial_page place in the page could be copied out incorrectly. I think the best fix for that is to *not* zero out parts of the page in truncate_partial_page, but rather to zero out the tail of a page when increasing i_size.

This patch adds support for DLPAR memory add to the eHEA driver. To detect whether memory was added the driver uses its own memory mapping table and checks for kernel addresses whether they're located in already known memory sections. If not the function ehea_rereg_mrs() is triggered which performs a rebuild of the mapping table and a re-registration of the global memory region.
