mm/debug-pagealloc: prepare boottime configurable on/off
Until now, debug-pagealloc needs extra flags in struct page, so we need to
recompile whole source code when we decide to use it. This is really
painful, because it takes some time to recompile and sometimes rebuild is
not possible due to third party module depending on struct page. So, we
can't use this good feature in many cases.
Now, we have the page extension feature that allows us to insert extra
flags to outside of struct page. This gets rid of third party module
issue mentioned above. And, this allows us to determine if we need extra
memory for this page extension in boottime. With these property, we can
avoid using debug-pagealloc in boottime with low computational overhead in
the kernel built with CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC. This will help our
development process greatly.
This patch is the preparation step to achive above goal. debug-pagealloc
originally uses extra field of struct page, but, after this patch, it will
use field of struct page_ext. Because memory for page_ext is allocated
later than initialization of page allocator in CONFIG_SPARSEMEM, we should
disable debug-pagealloc feature temporarily until initialization of
page_ext. This patch implements this.
