mm: numa: Migrate pages handled during a pmd_numa hinting fault
To say that the PMD handling code was incorrectly transferred from autonuma is an understatement. The intention was to handle a PMDs worth of pages in the same fault and effectively batch the taking of the PTL and page migration. The copied version instead has the impact of clearing a number of pte_numa PTE entries and whether any page migration takes place depends on racing. This just happens to work in some cases. This patch handles pte_numa faults in batch when a pmd_numa fault is handled. The pages are migrated if they are currently misplaced. Essentially this is making an assumption that NUMA locality is on a PMD boundary but that could be addressed by only setting pmd_numa if all the pages within that PMD are on the same node if necessary.
