Subject: mm: compaction: do not compact pgdat for order-0
X-Git-Tag: v3.12-rc1~52^2~197
X-Git-Url: http://review.tizen.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=3a7200af3d9227767869f451ed747aff07d8df48;p=platform%2Fkernel%2Flinux-stable.git

mm: compaction: do not compact pgdat for order-0

If kswapd was reclaiming for a high order and resets it to 0 due to
fragmentation it will still call compact_pgdat.  For the most part, this
will fail a compaction_suitable() test and not compact but it is
unnecessarily sloppy.  It could be fixed in the caller but fix it in the
API instead.
