mm/page_isolation.c: make start_isolate_page_range() fail if already isolated

Browse Source 
start_isolate_page_range() is used to set the migrate type of a set of
pageblocks to MIGRATE_ISOLATE while attempting to start a migration
operation.  It assumes that only one thread is calling it for the
specified range.  This routine is used by CMA, memory hotplug and
gigantic huge pages.  Each of these users synchronize access to the
range within their subsystem.  However, two subsystems (CMA and gigantic
huge pages for example) could attempt operations on the same range.  If
this happens, one thread may 'undo' the work another thread is doing.
This can result in pageblocks being incorrectly left marked as
MIGRATE_ISOLATE and therefore not available for page allocation.

What is ideally needed is a way to synchronize access to a set of
pageblocks that are undergoing isolation and migration.  The only thing
we know about these pageblocks is that they are all in the same zone.  A
per-node mutex is too coarse as we want to allow multiple operations on
different ranges within the same zone concurrently.  Instead, we will
use the migration type of the pageblocks themselves as a form of
synchronization.

start_isolate_page_range sets the migration type on a set of page-
blocks going in order from the one associated with the smallest pfn to
the largest pfn.  The zone lock is acquired to check and set the
migration type.  When going through the list of pageblocks check if
MIGRATE_ISOLATE is already set.  If so, this indicates another thread is
working on this pageblock.  We know exactly which pageblocks we set, so
clean up by undo those and return -EBUSY.

This allows start_isolate_page_range to serve as a synchronization
mechanism and will allow for more general use of callers making use of
these interfaces.  Update comments in alloc_contig_range to reflect this
new functionality.

Each CPU holds the associated zone lock to modify or examine the
migration type of a pageblock.  And, it will only examine/update a
single pageblock per lock acquire/release cycle.
