Linux kernel source tree
nr_empty_pop_pages is used to guarantee that there are some free
populated pages to satisfy atomic allocations. Accounted and
non-accounted allocations are using separate sets of chunks,
so both need to have a surplus of empty pages.
This commit makes pcpu_nr_empty_pop_pages and the corresponding logic
per chunk type.
[Dennis]
This issue came up as I was reviewing [1] and realized I missed this.
Simultaneously, it was reported btrfs was seeing failed atomic
allocations in fsstress tests [2] and [3].

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
