[PATCH] mm: Show watermark_boost of zone in zoneinfo

From: Liangcai Fan
Date: Fri Sep 24 2021 - 04:36:40 EST


min/low/high_wmark_pages(z) is defined as
(z->_watermark[WMARK_MIN/LOW/HIGH] + z->watermark_boost).
If kswapd is frequently waked up due to the increase of
min/low/high_wmark_pages, printing watermark_boost can quickly locate
whether watermark_boost or _watermark[WMARK_MIN/LOW/HIGH] caused
min/low/high_wmark_pages to increase.
