mm: move mm_percpu_wq initialization earlier
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Yang Li has reported that drain_all_pages triggers a WARN_ON which means
that this function is called earlier than the mm_percpu_wq is
initialized on arm64 with CMA configured:

Fix this by moving the whole setup_vmstat which is an initcall right now
to init_mm_internals which will be called right after the WQ subsystem
is initialized.
