mainlining shenanigans
57f29762cd
In a debugging session the other day, Rik noticed that node_reclaim() was missing memstall annotations. This means we'll miss pressure and lost productivity resulting from reclaim on an overloaded local NUMA node when vm.zone_reclaim_mode is enabled. There haven't been any reports, but that's likely because vm.zone_reclaim_mode hasn't been a commonly used feature recently, and the intersection between such setups and psi users is probably nil. But secondary memory such as CXL-connected DIMMS, persistent memory etc, and the page demotion patches that handle them (https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20210401183216.443C4443@viggo.jf.intel.com/) could soon make this a more common codepath again.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
