I don't think it could make measurable regression and if we want to
factor it out, it would be better to be self-contained. To me, it
looks weird if we need one more logic to consider *order* after
__zone_watermark_unusable_free. IMHO, if we couldn't make it neat,
the open-code like as-is would be better.
Since I am not strong against of either way, up to you.
Thanks.
