From 006d22d9bbb7e66279ba5cc4556b54eeaf8fd556 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Christoph Lameter Date: Mon, 25 Sep 2006 23:31:48 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] [PATCH] Optimize free_one_page Free one_page currently adds the page to a fake list and calls free_page_bulk. Fee_page_bulk takes it off again and then calles __free_one_page. Make free_one_page go directly to __free_one_page. Saves list on / off and a temporary list in free_one_page for higher ordered pages.
