Mel Gorman dbe2d4e4f1 mm, compaction: round-robin the order while searching the free lists for a target
As compaction proceeds and creates high-order blocks, the free list
search gets less efficient as the larger blocks are used as compaction
targets.  Eventually, the larger blocks will be behind the migration
scanner for partially migrated pageblocks and the search fails.  This
patch round-robins what orders are searched so that larger blocks can be
ignored and find smaller blocks that can be used as migration targets.

The overall impact was small on 1-socket but it avoids corner cases
where the migration/free scanners meet prematurely or situations where
many of the pageblocks encountered by the free scanner are almost full
instead of being properly packed.  Previous testing had indicated that
without this patch there were occasional large spikes in the free
scanner without this patch.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
