From a1c4921f6dbcc1efc353de47e75f5ed635343dc0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Shaohua Li Date: Wed, 28 Sep 2011 10:50:08 +1000 Subject: [PATCH] vmscan: count pages into balanced for zone with good watermark It's possible a zone watermark is ok when entering the balance_pgdat() loop, while the zone is within the requested classzone_idx. Count pages from this zone into `balanced'. In this way, we can skip shrinking zones too much for high order allocation.
