The patch titled
     Subject: mm/page_alloc: reduce potential fragmentation in make_alloc_exact()
has been added to the -mm mm-unstable branch.  Its filename is
     mm-page_alloc-reduce-potential-fragmentation-in-make_alloc_exact.patch

This patch will shortly appear at
     https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/25-new.git/tree/patches/mm-page_alloc-reduce-potential-fragmentation-in-make_alloc_exact.patch

This patch will later appear in the mm-unstable branch at
    git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm

Before you just go and hit "reply", please:
   a) Consider who else should be cc'ed
   b) Prefer to cc a suitable mailing list as well
   c) Ideally: find the original patch on the mailing list and do a
      reply-to-all to that, adding suitable additional cc's

Subject: mm/page_alloc: reduce potential fragmentation in make_alloc_exact()
Date: Tue, 31 May 2022 09:20:51 -0400

Try to avoid using the left over split page on the next request for a page
by calling __free_pages_ok() with FPI_TO_TAIL.  This increases the
potential of defragmenting memory when it's used for a short period of
time.
