From: Andrey Ryabinin <aryabinin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: mm/page_alloc.c: fix never set ALLOC_NOFRAGMENT flag 0a79cdad5eb2 ("mm: use alloc_flags to record if kswapd can wake") removed setting of the ALLOC_NOFRAGMENT flag. Bring it back. The runtime effect is that ALLOC_NOFRAGMENT behaviour is restored so that allocations are spread across local zones to avoid fragmentation due to mixing pageblocks as long as possible.
