[PATCH 06/28] mm, page_alloc: Use __dec_zone_state for order-0 page allocation

From: Mel Gorman
Date: Fri Apr 15 2016 - 05:00:46 EST


__dec_zone_state is cheaper to use for removing an order-0 page as it
has fewer conditions to check.

The performance difference on a page allocator microbenchmark is;
