From: Joonsoo Kim <iamjoonsoo.kim@xxxxxxx>
3.12-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
===============
commit 01ead5340bcf5f3a1cd2452c75516d0ef4d908d7 upstream.
suitable_migration_target() checks that pageblock is suitable for
migration target. In isolate_freepages_block(), it is called on every
page and this is inefficient. So make it called once per pageblock.
suitable_migration_target() also checks if page is highorder or not, but
it's criteria for highorder is pageblock order. So calling it once
within pageblock range has no problem.
