Subject: [PATCH 0/8] mm: introduce zone lock guards
Date: Fri, 6 Mar 2026 16:05:34 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <cover.1772811429.git.d@ilvokhin.com> (raw)
This series defines DEFINE_LOCK_GUARD_1 for zone_lock_irqsave and uses
it across several mm functions to replace explicit lock/unlock patterns
with automatic scope-based cleanup.
This simplifies the control flow by removing 'flags' variables, goto
labels, and redundant unlock calls.
Patches are ordered by decreasing value. The first six patches simplify
the control flow by removing gotos, multiple unlock paths, or 'ret'
variables. The last two are simpler lock/unlock pair conversions that
only remove 'flags' and can be dropped if considered unnecessary churn.
Based on mm-new.
