Subject: [PATCH 20/27] mm, vmscan: Update classzone_idx if buffer_heads_over_limit
Date: Wed,  6 Apr 2016 12:20:19 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1459941626-3290-21-git-send-email-mgorman@techsingularity.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1459941626-3290-1-git-send-email-mgorman@techsingularity.net>

If buffer heads are over the limit then the direct reclaim gfp_mask
is promoted to __GFP_HIGHMEM so that lowmem is indirectly freed. With
node-based reclaim, it is also required that the classzone_idx be updated
or the pages will be skipped.
