Subject: [PATCH] call mm/page-writeback.c:set_ratelimit() when new pages are hot-added
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=2d1d43f6a43b703587e759145f69467e7c6553a7;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2Fandroid_kernel_samsung_universal7580.git

[PATCH] call mm/page-writeback.c:set_ratelimit() when new pages are hot-added

ratelimit_pages in page-writeback.c is recalculated (in set_ratelimit())
every time a CPU is hot-added/removed.  But this value is not recalculated
when new pages are hot-added.

This patch fixes that problem by calling set_ratelimit() when new pages
are hot-added.
