mm, pagealloc: micro-optimisation: save two branches on hot page allocation path
This patch makes ALLOC_KSWAPD equal to __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM (cast to int). Thanks to that code like: if (gfp_mask & __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM) alloc_flags |= ALLOC_KSWAPD; can be changed to: alloc_flags |= (__force int) (gfp_mask &__GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM); Thanks to this one branch less is generated in the assembly. In case of ALLOC_KSWAPD flag two branches are saved, first one in code that always executes in the beginning of page allocation and the second one in loop in page allocator slowpath.
