memory unplug: page isolation
Implement generic chunk-of-pages isolation method by using page grouping ops. This patch add MIGRATE_ISOLATE to MIGRATE_TYPES. By this - MIGRATE_TYPES increases. - bitmap for migratetype is enlarged. pages of MIGRATE_ISOLATE migratetype will not be allocated even if it is free. By this, you can isolated *freed* pages from users. How-to-free pages is not a purpose of this patch. You may use reclaim and migrate codes to free pages. If start_isolate_page_range(start,end) is called, - migratetype of the range turns to be MIGRATE_ISOLATE if its type is MIGRATE_MOVABLE. (*) this check can be updated if other memory reclaiming works make progress. - MIGRATE_ISOLATE is not on migratetype fallback list. - All free pages and will-be-freed pages are isolated. To check all pages in the range are isolated or not, use test_pages_isolated(), To cancel isolation, use undo_isolate_page_range(). Changes V6 -> V7 - removed unnecessary #ifdef There are HOLES_IN_ZONE handling codes...I'm glad if we can remove them..
