Lee Schermerhorn fc36b8d3d8 mempolicy: use MPOL_F_LOCAL to Indicate Preferred Local Policy
Now that we're using "preferred local" policy for system default, we need to
make this as fast as possible.  Because of the variable size of the mempolicy
structure [based on size of nodemasks], the preferred_node may be in a
different cacheline from the mode.  This can result in accessing an extra
cacheline in the normal case of system default policy.  Suspect this is the
cause of an observed 2-3% slowdown in page fault testing relative to kernel
without this patch series.

To alleviate this, use an internal mode flag, MPOL_F_LOCAL in the mempolicy
flags member which is guaranteed [?] to be in the same cacheline as the mode
itself.

Verified that reworked mempolicy now performs slightly better on 25-rc8-mm1
for both anon and shmem segments with system default and vma [preferred local]
policy.

* Describe a memory policy.
*
* A mempolicy can be either associated with a process or with a VMA.
* For VMA related allocations the VMA policy is preferred, otherwise
* the process policy is used. Interrupts ignore the memory policy
* of the current process.
*
* Locking policy for interlave:
* In process context there is no locking because only the process accesses
* its own state. All vma manipulation is somewhat protected by a down_read on
* mmap_sem.
*
* Freeing policy:
* Mempolicy objects are reference counted. A mempolicy will be freed when
* mpol_put() decrements the reference count to zero.
*
* Duplicating policy objects:
* mpol_dup() allocates a new mempolicy and copies the specified mempolicy
* to the new storage. The reference count of the new object is initialized
* to 1, representing the caller of mpol_dup().
