The patch titled
Subject: mm: page_alloc: avoid merging non-fallbackable pageblocks with others
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
mm-page_alloc-avoid-merging-non-fallbackable-pageblocks-with-others.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree
------------------------------------------------------
From: Zi Yan <ziy@xxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: mm: page_alloc: avoid merging non-fallbackable pageblocks with others
This is done in addition to MIGRATE_ISOLATE pageblock merge avoidance. It
prepares for the upcoming removal of the MAX_ORDER-1 alignment requirement
for CMA and alloc_contig_range().
MIGRATE_HIGHATOMIC should not merge with other migratetypes like
MIGRATE_ISOLATE and MIGRARTE_CMA[1], so this commit prevents that too.
Remove MIGRATE_CMA and MIGRATE_ISOLATE from fallbacks list, since they
are never used.
