    Page allocator: clean up pcp draining functions · 9f8f2172
    Christoph Lameter 提交于
    - Add comments explaing how drain_pages() works.
    
    - Eliminate useless functions
    
    - Rename drain_all_local_pages to drain_all_pages(). It does drain
      all pages not only those of the local processor.
    
    - Eliminate useless interrupt off / on sequences. drain_pages()
      disables interrupts on its own. The execution thread is
      pinned to processor by the caller. So there is no need to
      disable interrupts.
    
    - Put drain_all_pages() declaration in gfp.h and remove the
      declarations from suspend.h and from mm/memory_hotplug.c
    
    - Make software suspend call drain_all_pages(). The draining
      of processor local pages is may not the right approach if
      software suspend wants to support SMP. If they call drain_all_pages
      then we can make drain_pages() static.
