Patch series "Make MIGRATE_ISOLATE a standalone bit", v10.
This patchset moves MIGRATE_ISOLATE to a standalone bit to avoid being
overwritten during pageblock isolation process. Currently,
MIGRATE_ISOLATE is part of enum migratetype (in include/linux/mmzone.h),
thus, setting a pageblock to MIGRATE_ISOLATE overwrites its original
migratetype. This causes pageblock migratetype loss during
alloc_contig_range() and memory offline, especially when the process fails
due to a failed pageblock isolation and the code tries to undo the
finished pageblock isolations.
In terms of performance for changing pageblock types, no performance
change is observed:
1. I used perf to collect stats of offlining and onlining all memory
of a 40GB VM 10 times and see that get_pfnblock_flags_mask() and
set_pfnblock_flags_mask() take about 0.12% and 0.02% of the whole
process respectively with and without this patchset across 3 runs.
2. I used perf to collect stats of dd from /dev/random to a 40GB tmpfs
file and find get_pfnblock_flags_mask() takes about 0.05% of the
process with and without this patchset across 3 runs.
This patch (of 6):
No functional change is intended.
1. Add __NR_PAGEBLOCK_BITS for the number of pageblock flag bits and use
roundup_pow_of_two(__NR_PAGEBLOCK_BITS) as NR_PAGEBLOCK_BITS to take
right amount of bits for pageblock flags.
2. Rename PB_migrate_skip to PB_compact_skip.
3. Add {get,set,clear}_pfnblock_bit() to operate one a standalone bit,
like PB_compact_skip.
3. Make {get,set}_pfnblock_flags_mask() internal functions and use
{get,set}_pfnblock_migratetype() for pageblock migratetype operations.
4. Move pageblock flags common code to get_pfnblock_bitmap_bitidx().
3. Use MIGRATETYPE_MASK to get the migratetype of a pageblock from its
flags.
4. Use PB_migrate_end in the definition of MIGRATETYPE_MASK instead of
PB_migrate_bits.
5. Add a comment on is_migrate_cma_folio() to prevent one from changing it
to use get_pageblock_migratetype() and causing issues.

Jon says:
> +See also :ref:`Page Reclaim <page_reclaim>`.
Can also just be "See also Documentation/mm/page_reclaim.rst". The
right things will happen in the HTML output, readers of the plain-text
will know immediately where to go, and we don't have to add the label
clutter.
Remove reference markup and unnecessary labes and use plain file names.

Add structure, introduction and Nodes section to Physical Memory
chapter.
As the new documentation references core-api/dma-api and mm/page_reclaim,
add page labels to those documents.
