[RFC 1/2] Try to use HighAtomic if try to alloc umovable page that order is not 0
From: Hui Zhu
Date: Tue Sep 26 2017 - 05:03:30 EST
The page add a new condition to let gfp_to_alloc_flags return
alloc_flags with ALLOC_HARDER if the order is not 0 and migratetype is
MIGRATE_UNMOVABLE.
Then alloc umovable page that order is not 0 will try to use HighAtomic.
