There are few questions before preparing patch: 1. Compatibility: some code which is not yet in tree can rely on non-movable behaviour of GFP_HIGHUSER. How would we handle this? Should we invent new name for the movable GFP_HIGHUSER? 2. Should GFP_USER be movable too? And the same compatibility question here. 3. Do we need a separate define for non-movable GPF_HIGHUSER or caller should use something like GPF_HIGHUSER & ~__GFP_MOVABLE? 4. Is there a gain, taking into account questions above? -- Kirill A.
