Subject: mm: page_alloc: trace type pollution from compaction capturing
Date: Thu, 13 Mar 2025 17:05:33 -0400
When the page allocator places pages of a certain migratetype into blocks
of another type, it has lasting effects on the ability to compact and
defragment down the line. For improving placement and compaction,
visibility into such events is crucial.
The most common case, allocator fallbacks, is already annotated, but
compaction capturing is also allowed to grab pages of a different type.
Extend the tracepoint to cover this case.
