[PATCH] mm: skip CMA pages when they are not available

From: zhaoyang.huang
Date: Wed Apr 19 2023 - 01:42:38 EST


From: Zhaoyang Huang <zhaoyang.huang@xxxxxxxxxx>

It is wasting of effort to reclaim CMA pages if they are not availabe
for current context during direct reclaim. Skip them when under corresponding
circumstance.
