Michal Hocko 4da2ce250f mm: distinguish CMA and MOVABLE isolation in has_unmovable_pages()
Joonsoo has noticed that "mm: drop migrate type checks from
has_unmovable_pages" would break CMA allocator because it relies on
has_unmovable_pages returning false even for CMA pageblocks which in
fact don't have to be movable:

 alloc_contig_range
   start_isolate_page_range
     set_migratetype_isolate
       has_unmovable_pages

This is a result of the code sharing between CMA and memory hotplug
while each one has a different idea of what has_unmovable_pages should
return.  This is unfortunate but fixing it properly would require a lot
of code duplication.

Fix the issue by introducing the requested migrate type argument and
special case MIGRATE_CMA case where CMA page blocks are handled
properly.  This will work for memory hotplug because it requires
MIGRATE_MOVABLE.

README

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
