Title:
  linux: exclude ZONE_DEVICE from GFP_ZONE_TABLE

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in linux source package in Xenial:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  mm: exclude ZONE_DEVICE from GFP_ZONE_TABLE
      
      ZONE_DEVICE (merged in 4.3) and ZONE_CMA (proposed) are examples of new
      mm zones that are bumping up against the current maximum limit of 4
      zones, i.e.  2 bits in page->flags for the GFP_ZONE_TABLE.
      
      The GFP_ZONE_TABLE poses an interesting constraint since
      include/linux/gfp.h gets included by the 32-bit portion of a 64-bit
      build.  We need to be careful to only build the table for zones that
      have a corresponding gfp_t flag.  GFP_ZONES_SHIFT is introduced for this
      purpose.  This patch does not attempt to solve the problem of adding a
      new zone that also has a corresponding GFP_ flag.
      
      Vlastimil points out that ZONE_DEVICE, by depending on x86_64 and
      SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP implies that SECTIONS_WIDTH is zero.  In other words
      even though ZONE_DEVICE does not fit in GFP_ZONE_TABLE it is free to
      consume another bit in page->flags (expand ZONES_WIDTH) with room to
      spare.
