David Rientjes 2f0799a0ff mm, thp: restore node-local hugepage allocations
This is a full revert of ac5b2c1891 ("mm: thp: relax __GFP_THISNODE for
MADV_HUGEPAGE mappings") and a partial revert of 89c83fb539 ("mm, thp:
consolidate THP gfp handling into alloc_hugepage_direct_gfpmask").

By not setting __GFP_THISNODE, applications can allocate remote hugepages
when the local node is fragmented or low on memory when either the thp
defrag setting is "always" or the vma has been madvised with
MADV_HUGEPAGE.

Remote access to hugepages often has much higher latency than local pages
of the native page size.  On Haswell, ac5b2c1891 was shown to have a
13.9% access regression after this commit for binaries that remap their
text segment to be backed by transparent hugepages.

The intent of ac5b2c1891 is to address an issue where a local node is
low on memory or fragmented such that a hugepage cannot be allocated.  In
every scenario where this was described as a fix, there is abundant and
unfragmented remote memory available to allocate from, even with a greater
access latency.

If remote memory is also low or fragmented, not setting __GFP_THISNODE was
also measured on Haswell to have a 40% regression in allocation latency.

Restore __GFP_THISNODE for thp allocations.

Fixes: ac5b2c1891 ("mm: thp: relax __GFP_THISNODE for MADV_HUGEPAGE mappings")
Fixes: 89c83fb539 ("mm, thp: consolidate THP gfp handling into alloc_hugepage_direct_gfpmask")
