We see that memory fragmentation increases sharply over time when the
camera is used a lot. Neither background compaction nor user-triggered
one help it that much:
# cat /proc/buddyinfo
Node 0, zone DMA 4366 2404 6 1 0 1 1 1 0 0 0
Node 0, zone Normal 2736 2094 91 21 8 0 1 1 0 0 0
# echo 1 > /proc/sys/vm/compact_memory
# cat /proc/buddyinfo
Node 0, zone DMA 2591 1955 391 113 13 2 1 1 0 0 0
Node 0, zone Normal 2159 1155 487 158 9 0 1 1 0 0 0
With the patch, triggering compaction gives far better results:
# cat /proc/buddyinfo
Node 0, zone DMA 3101 4845 605 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
Node 0, zone Normal 5271 4459 573 20 3 2 3 3 1 0 0
# echo 1 > /proc/sys/vm/compact_memory
# cat /proc/buddyinfo
Node 0, zone DMA 579 303 151 114 91 67 30 24 7 2 1
Node 0, zone Normal 762 508 400 271 195 100 45 10 5 0 0

You're right. Anyway IMV cached free buffers are to be movable because
there's essentially no reason why they shouldn't, and scattered empty
buffers standing in the way of compaction sounds like a nonsense to
me.
Then, currently pseudo filesystem tricks are required to support
moving of ion cache buffers and we just follow that.
