There is no description of what problem this is trying to fix. Checking the status of reclaim for a specific zone in this path would be a little unexpected. If allocation pressure is exceeding the ability of reclaim to make progress then the caller likely needs to take action like direct reclaim. If the allocation failure is due to a high-order failure then it may need to enter direct compaction etc. -- Mel Gorman SUSE Labs
