powerpc/pseries/cmm: Switch to balloon_page_alloc()
balloon_page_alloc() will use GFP_HIGHUSER_MOVABLE in case we have CONFIG_BALLOON_COMPACTION. This is now possible, as balloon pages are movable with CONFIG_BALLOON_COMPACTION. Without CONFIG_BALLOON_COMPACTION, GFP_HIGHUSER is used. Note that apart from that, balloon_page_alloc() uses the following flags: __GFP_NOMEMALLOC | __GFP_NORETRY | __GFP_NOWARN And current code used: GFP_NOIO | __GFP_NOWARN | __GFP_NORETRY | __GFP_NOMEMALLOC GFP_HIGHUSER/GFP_HIGHUSER_MOVABLE include __GFP_RECLAIM | __GFP_IO | __GFP_FS | __GFP_HARDWALL | __GFP_HIGHMEM GFP_NOIO is __GFP_RECLAIM. With CONFIG_BALLOON_COMPACTION, we essentially add: __GFP_IO | __GFP_FS | __GFP_HARDWALL | __GFP_HIGHMEM | __GFP_MOVABLE Without CONFIG_BALLOON_COMPACTION, we essentially add: __GFP_IO | __GFP_FS | __GFP_HARDWALL | __GFP_HIGHMEM I assume this is fine, as this is what all other balloon compaction users use. If it turns out to be a problem, we could add __GFP_MOVABLE manually if we have CONFIG_BALLOON_COMPACTION.
