memory unplug: page offline
Logic.
- set all pages in [start,end) as isolated migration-type.
by this, all free pages in the range will be not-for-use.
- Migrate all LRU pages in the range.
- Test all pages in the range's refcnt is zero or not.
Todo:
- allocate migration destination page from better area.
- confirm page_count(page)== 0 && PageReserved(page) page is safe to be freed..
(I don't like this kind of page but..
- Find out pages which cannot be migrated.
- more running tests.
- Use reclaim for unplugging other memory type area.
