This is because CPU local list has a total of 1000 entries
(MAX_FGPT_ENTRIES) where as CPU global list has 999 entries. If you see
the arch_free_page_slowpath() and consider a situation where there are
1000 entries of singly allocated free pages in cpu-local list i.e., none
of them are re-allocated. While adding them to the cpu global list when
cpu local list index reaches to 1000 the outer loop will terminate due
to which cpu global list index will never reach to 1000 and
compress_hyperlist()/make_hypercall() will never be called.

I agree, I will fix it in the next version.
