------------------------------------------------------
From: Vlastimil Babka <vbabka@xxxxxxx>
Subject: page-flags-define-behavior-of-lru-related-flags-on-compound-pages-fix-fix

Mentioning hugetlbfs is misleading, because PageLRU() checks skip over
hugetlb pages.  The ALIGN() parts are useless, because
compound_order(page) returns 0 for tail pages.
