Subject: mm: page_alloc: move free pages when converting block during isolation
Date: Wed, 20 Mar 2024 14:02:09 -0400
When claiming a block during compaction isolation, move any remaining free
pages to the correct freelists as well, instead of stranding them on the
wrong list. Otherwise, this encourages incompatible page mixing down the
line, and thus long-term fragmentation.
