Subject: [PATCH v2 3/3] mm/compaction: optimize >0 order folio compaction with free page split.

From: Zi Yan <ziy@...dia.com>

During migration in a memory compaction, free pages are placed in an array
of page lists based on their order. But the desired free page order (i.e.,
the order of a source page) might not be always present, thus leading to
migration failures and premature compaction termination. Split a high
order free pages when source migration page has a lower order to increase
migration successful rate.

Note: merging free pages when a migration fails and a lower order free
page is returned via compaction_free() is possible, but there is too much
work. Since the free pages are not buddy pages, it is hard to identify
these free pages using existing PFN-based page merging algorithm.
