From ebf360f9bb957f68e19e88f5067c015997dc26a6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andrea Arcangeli Date: Tue, 21 Jan 2014 15:48:51 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] mm: hugetlbfs: move the put/get_page slab and hugetlbfs optimization in a faster path We don't actually need a reference on the head page in the slab and hugetlbfs paths, as long as we add a smp_rmb() which should be faster than get_page_unless_zero.
