Subject: [PATCH v5 5/5] mm: Maintain randomization of page free lists
When freeing a page with an order >= shuffle_page_order randomly select
the front or back of the list for insertion.
While the mm tries to defragment physical pages into huge pages this can
tend to make the page allocator more predictable over time. Inject the
front-back randomness to preserve the initial randomness established by
shuffle_free_memory() when the kernel was booted.
The overhead of this manipulation is constrained by only being applied
for MAX_ORDER sized pages by default.
