page_alloc.c's per-cpu page lists are currently protected using local locks. While performance savvy, this doesn't allow for remote access to these structures. CPUs requiring system-wide per-cpu list drains get around this by scheduling drain work on all CPUs. That said, some select setups like systems with NOHZ_FULL CPUs, aren't well suited to this, as they can't handle interruptions of any sort. To mitigate this, introduce an alternative locking scheme using spinlocks that will permit remotely accessing these per-cpu page lists. It's disabled by default, with no functional change to regular users, and enabled through the 'remote_pcpu_cache_access' static key. Upcoming patches will make use of this static key. This is based on previous work by Thomas Gleixner, Anna-Maria Gleixner, and Sebastian Andrzej Siewior[1].
