* NUMA policy allows the user to give hints in which node(s) memory should
* be allocated.
*
* Support four policies per VMA and per process:
*
* The VMA policy has priority over the process policy for a page fault.
*
* interleave Allocate memory interleaved over a set of nodes,
* with normal fallback if it fails.
* For VMA based allocations this interleaves based on the
* offset into the backing object or offset into the mapping
* for anonymous memory. For process policy an process counter
* is used.
*
* bind Only allocate memory on a specific set of nodes,
* no fallback.
* FIXME: memory is allocated starting with the first node
* to the last. It would be better if bind would truly restrict
* the allocation to memory nodes instead
*
* preferred Try a specific node first before normal fallback.
* As a special case node -1 here means do the allocation
* on the local CPU. This is normally identical to default,
* but useful to set in a VMA when you have a non default
* process policy.
*
* default Allocate on the local node first, or when on a VMA
* use the process policy. This is what Linux always did
* in a NUMA aware kernel and still does by, ahem, default.
*
* The process policy is applied for most non interrupt memory allocations
* in that process' context. Interrupts ignore the policies and always
* try to allocate on the local CPU. The VMA policy is only applied for memory
* allocations for a VMA in the VM.
*
* Currently there are a few corner cases in swapping where the policy
* is not applied, but the majority should be handled. When process policy
* is used it is not remembered over swap outs/swap ins.
*
* Only the highest zone in the zone hierarchy gets policied. Allocations
* requesting a lower zone just use default policy. This implies that
* on systems with highmem kernel lowmem allocation don't get policied.
* Same with GFP_DMA allocations.
*
* For shmfs/tmpfs/hugetlbfs shared memory the policy is shared between
* all users and remembered even when nobody has memory mapped.

/* Notebook:
fix mmap readahead to honour policy and enable policy for any page cache
object
statistics for bigpages
global policy for page cache? currently it uses process policy. Requires
first item above.
handle mremap for shared memory (currently ignored for the policy)
grows down?
make bind policy root only? It can trigger oom much faster and the
kernel is not always grateful with that.
could replace all the switch()es with a mempolicy_ops structure.
