of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm

Subject: mm: support order-1 folios in the page cache
Date: Mon, 26 Feb 2024 15:55:28 -0500

Folios of order 1 have no space to store the deferred list.  This is not a
problem for the page cache as file-backed folios are never placed on the
deferred list.  All we need to do is prevent the core MM from touching the
deferred list for order 1 folios and remove the code which prevented us
from allocating order 1 folios.
