NIT: We usually name the variable as *block or ***_block for drm buddy
and we have *node or ***_node for drm mm manager.

[xh] Oh, yes. The code naming is important. Will fix it.

I think with this approach, if we are lucky enough we may get contiguous
blocks in one order level down in RL
combination from the freelist?

[xh] That is just what I did at first time like something below.
       list_for_each_entry(node, head, link)
               list_for_each_entry_reverse(rnode, head, link)

I do the test with one ROCM application while running gdm restart background which is a very normal scenario.

The test result shows there is about 4% chance to find the continuous blocks in this case. This 4% is really good enough as eviction is much more expensive.
So after that, I need take care of the rest 96% to not introduce too much workload.

Compared with the two loops, walking through the tree is a little cheaper.

thanks
xinhui
