SubjectRe: [PATCH v2] xen/gntdev: Use mempolicy instead of VM_IO flag to avoid NUMA balancing

Thanks for the patch!

Would be nice to actually test the code path which caused the initial
addition of VM_IO. I think I lack the hardware to excersise them.


In my 4.4 based sources I get the following unresolved symbols. If that
happens to work in mainline the failures should at least be considered
during backporting of this proposed patch to the stable trees.

ERROR: "__mpol_dup" [drivers/xen/xen-gntdev.ko] undefined!
ERROR: "get_task_policy" [drivers/xen/xen-gntdev.ko] undefined!

Appearently these symbols lack just an EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL.
