Subject[PATCH 3.11 155/208] mm: numa: defer TLB flush for THP migration as long as possible
Date
3.11.10.3 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Mel Gorman <mgorman@suse.de>

commit b0943d61b8fa420180f92f64ef67662b4f6cc493 upstream.

THP migration can fail for a variety of reasons. Avoid flushing the TLB
to deal with THP migration races until the copy is ready to start.
