mm,page_owner: fix accounting of pages when migrating

osalvadorvilardaga · akpm00 · commit 718b1f3373a7 · 2024-04-16T15:39:49.000-07:00
Upon migration, new allocated pages are being given the handle of the old pages. This is problematic because it means that for the stack which allocated the old page, we will be substracting the old page + the new one when that page is freed, creating an accounting imbalance. There is an interest in keeping it that way, as otherwise the output will biased towards migration stacks should those operations occur often, but that is not really helpful. The link from the new page to the old stack is being performed by calling __update_page_owner_handle() in __folio_copy_owner(). The only thing that is left is to link the migrate stack to the old page, so the old page will be subtracted from the migrate stack, avoiding by doing so any possible imbalance.
