[PATCH] wait_table and zonelist initializing for memory hotadd: update zonelists
In current code, zonelist is considered to be build once, no modification. But MemoryHotplug can add new zone/pgdat. It must be updated. This patch modifies build_all_zonelists(). By this, build_all_zonelist() can reconfig pgdat's zonelists. To update them safety, this patch use stop_machine_run(). Other cpus don't touch among updating them by using it. In old version (V2 of node hotadd), kernel updated them after zone initialization. But present_page of its new zone is still 0, because online_page() is not called yet at this time. Build_zonelists() checks present_pages to find present zone. It was too early. So, I changed it after online_pages().
