mm, page_alloc: use check_pages_enabled static key to check tail pages
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Commit 700d2e9 ("mm, page_alloc: reduce page alloc/free sanity
checks") has introduced a new static key check_pages_enabled to control
when struct pages are sanity checked during allocation and freeing.  Mel
Gorman suggested that free_tail_pages_check() could use this static key as
well, instead of relying on CONFIG_DEBUG_VM.  That makes sense, so do
that.  Also rename the function to free_tail_page_prepare() because it
works on a single tail page and has a struct page preparation component as
well as the optional checking component.

Also remove some unnecessary unlikely() within static_branch_unlikely()
statements that Mel pointed out for commit 700d2e9.
