If the released page is captured by compaction, now the free page accounting
is not correspondingly decreased, which can make the watermark checks false
positive and result in depleted reserves etc. And I can see the false positive
watermark checks in thpcompact benchmark, that led to a slight regression:
thpcompact Percentage Faults Huge
k6.9-rc2-base base + patch10 + 2 fixes
Percentage huge-1 78.18 ( 0.00%) 71.92 ( -8.01%)
Percentage huge-3 86.70 ( 0.00%) 86.07 ( -0.73%)
Percentage huge-5 90.26 ( 0.00%) 78.02 ( -13.57%)
Percentage huge-7 92.34 ( 0.00%) 78.67 ( -14.81%)
Percentage huge-12 91.18 ( 0.00%) 81.04 ( -11.12%)
Percentage huge-18 89.00 ( 0.00%) 79.57 ( -10.60%)
Percentage huge-24 90.52 ( 0.00%) 80.07 ( -11.54%)
Percentage huge-30 94.44 ( 0.00%) 96.28 ( 1.95%)
Percentage huge-32 93.09 ( 0.00%) 99.39 ( 6.77%)
After the fix, the regression is gone.
