Subject: [PATCH] mm/thp: Do not wait for lock_page() in deferred_split_scan()

|
||||
deferred_split_scan() gets called from reclaim path. Waiting for page
|
||||
lock may lead to deadlock there.
|
||||
|
||||
Replace lock_page() with trylock_page() and skip the page if we failed
|
||||
to lock it. We will get to the page on the next scan.
