The hyp buddy allocator currently checks the struct hyp_page list node to see if a page is available for allocation or not when trying to coalesce memory. Now that decrementing the refcount and attaching to the buddy tree is done in the same critical section, we can rely on the refcount of the buddy page to be in sync, which allows to replace the list node check by a refcount check. This will ease removing the list node from struct hyp_page later on.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
