Subject: mm: compaction: skip the memory hole rapidly when isolating free pages
Date: Fri, 7 Jul 2023 16:51:47 +0800
Just like commit 9721fd82351d ("mm: compaction: skip memory hole
rapidly when isolating migratable pages"), I can see it will also take
more time to skip the larger memory hole (range: 0x1000000000 -
0x1800000000) when isolating free pages on my machine with below memory
layout. So like commit 9721fd82351d, adding a new helper to skip the
memory hole rapidly, which can reduce the time consumed from about 70us
to less than 1us.
