hugetlb, memory_hotplug: prefer to use reserved pages for migration
new_node_page will try to use the origin's next NUMA node as the migration destination for hugetlb pages. If such a node doesn't have any preallocated pool it falls back to __alloc_buddy_huge_page_no_mpol to allocate a surplus page instead. This is quite subotpimal for any configuration when hugetlb pages are no distributed to all NUMA nodes evenly. Say we have a hotplugable node 4 and spare hugetlb pages are node 0 /sys/devices/system/node/node0/hugepages/hugepages-2048kB/nr_hugepages:10000 /sys/devices/system/node/node1/hugepages/hugepages-2048kB/nr_hugepages:0 /sys/devices/system/node/node2/hugepages/hugepages-2048kB/nr_hugepages:0 /sys/devices/system/node/node3/hugepages/hugepages-2048kB/nr_hugepages:0 /sys/devices/system/node/node4/hugepages/hugepages-2048kB/nr_hugepages:10000 /sys/devices/system/node/node5/hugepages/hugepages-2048kB/nr_hugepages:0 /sys/devices/system/node/node6/hugepages/hugepages-2048kB/nr_hugepages:0 /sys/devices/system/node/node7/hugepages/hugepages-2048kB/nr_hugepages:0 Now we consume the whole pool on node 4 and try to offline this node. All the allocated pages should be moved to node0 which has enough preallocated pages to hold them. With the current implementation offlining very likely fails because hugetlb allocations during runtime are much less reliable. Fix this by reusing the nodemask which excludes migration source and try to find a first node which has a page in the preallocated pool first and fall back to __alloc_buddy_huge_page_no_mpol only when the whole pool is consumed.
