Subject: [PATCH 1/2] Revert "mm: page_alloc: exclude unreclaimable allocations from zone fairness policy"
Date: Fri, 20 Dec 2013 14:54:11 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1387551252-23375-2-git-send-email-mgorman@suse.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1387551252-23375-1-git-send-email-mgorman@suse.de>

This reverts commit 73f038b863dfe98acabc7c36c17342b84ad52e94. The NUMA behaviour of
this patch is less than ideal. An alternative approch is to interleave allocations
only within local zones which is implemented in the next patch.
