Subject[PATCH] mm: page_alloc: refactor setup_per_zone_lowmem_reserve()
Date
setup_per_zone_lowmem_reserve() iterates through each zone setting
zone->lowmem_reserve[j] = 0 (where j is the zone's index) then
iterates backwards through all proceeding zones, setting
lower_zone->lowmem_reserve[j] = sum(managed pages of higher zones) /
lowmem_reserve_ratio[idx] for each (where idx is the lower zone's
index).

If the lower zone has no managed pages or its ratio is 0 then all of its
lowmem_reserve[] entries are effectively zeroed.

As these arrays are only assigned here and all lowmem_reserve[] entries
for index < this zone's index are implicitly assumed to be 0 (as these
are specifically output in show_free_areas() and zoneinfo_show_print()
for example) there is no need to additionally zero index == this zone's
index too. This patch avoids zeroing unnecessarily.

Rather than iterating through zones and setting lowmem_reserve[j] for
each lower zone this patch reverse the process and populates each zone's
lowmem_reserve[] values in ascending order.

This clarifies what is going on especially in the case of zero managed
pages or ratio which is now explicitly shown to clear these values.
