Jérôme Glisse c733a82874 mm/memcontrol: support MEMORY_DEVICE_PRIVATE
HMM pages (private or public device pages) are ZONE_DEVICE page and thus
need special handling when it comes to lru or refcount.  This patch make
sure that memcontrol properly handle those when it face them.  Those pages
are use like regular pages in a process address space either as anonymous
page or as file back page.  So from memcg point of view we want to handle
them like regular page for now at least.

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.
