From a4bafffb5dc5be6c7a3b77b2de0cbaf6776a3c8b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mel Gorman Date: Tue, 22 Nov 2022 13:12:29 +0000 Subject: mm/page_alloc: simplify locking during free_unref_page_list While freeing a large list, the zone lock will be released and reacquired to avoid long hold times since commit c24ad77d962c ("mm/page_alloc.c: avoid excessive IRQ disabled times in free_unref_page_list()"). As suggested by Vlastimil Babka, the lockrelease/reacquire logic can be simplified by reusing the logic that acquires a different lock when changing zones.
