The patch titled Subject: mm-kswapd-replace-kswapd-compaction-with-waking-up-kcompactd-fix has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was mm-kswapd-replace-kswapd-compaction-with-waking-up-kcompactd-fix.patch This patch was dropped because an alternative patch was merged ------------------------------------------------------ From: Vlastimil Babka <vbabka@xxxxxxx> Subject: mm-kswapd-replace-kswapd-compaction-with-waking-up-kcompactd-fix Change zone_balanced() check in balance_pgdat() to consider only base pages as that's the same what kswapd_shrink_zone() later does. So a zone that would be selected due to lack of high-order pages would not be reclaimed anyway, and just cause extra CPU churn. Also remove unnecessary variable testorder in kswapd_shrink_zone().
