Any reason for dropping the early if (!page_private(obj)) skip? Similarly there are other patterns here that would benefit from integration with existing shrinker logic. However, things like tidying up the pin_display, unbinding, rpm lock inversion are still only on list. -Chris -- Chris Wilson, Intel Open Source Technology Centre _______________________________________________ Intel-gfx mailing list [email protected] https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/intel-gfx
