Vlastimil Babka 9f7e338793 mm, compaction: make full priority ignore pageblock suitability ... Several people have reported premature OOMs for order-2 allocations (stack) due to OOM rework in 4.7. In the scenario (parallel kernel build and dd writing to two drives) many pageblocks get marked as Unmovable and compaction free scanner struggles to isolate free pages. Joonsoo Kim pointed out that the free scanner skips pageblocks that are not movable to prevent filling them and forcing non-movable allocations to fallback to other pageblocks. Such heuristic makes sense to help prevent long-term fragmentation, but premature OOMs are relatively more urgent problem. As a compromise, this patch disables the heuristic only for the ultimate compaction priority.
