    mm, hugetlb: don't require CMA for runtime gigantic pages · 080fe206

    Commit 944d9fec ("hugetlb: add support for gigantic page allocation
    at runtime") has added the runtime gigantic page allocation via
    alloc_contig_range(), making this support available only when CONFIG_CMA
    is enabled.  Because it doesn't depend on MIGRATE_CMA pageblocks and the
    associated infrastructure, it is possible with few simple adjustments to
    require only CONFIG_MEMORY_ISOLATION instead of full CONFIG_CMA.
    
    After this patch, alloc_contig_range() and related functions are
    available and used for gigantic pages with just CONFIG_MEMORY_ISOLATION
    enabled.  Note CONFIG_CMA selects CONFIG_MEMORY_ISOLATION.  This allows
    supporting runtime gigantic pages without the CMA-specific checks in
    page allocator fastpaths.
