commit 6a204d4b14c99232e05d35305c27ebce1c009840 upstream. Commit524c48072e("mm/page_alloc: rename ALLOC_HIGH to ALLOC_MIN_RESERVE") is the start of a series that explains how __GFP_HIGH, which implies ALLOC_MIN_RESERVE, is going to be used instead of __GFP_ATOMIC for high atomic reserves. Commiteb2e2b425c("mm/page_alloc: explicitly record high-order atomic allocations in alloc_flags") introduced ALLOC_HIGHATOMIC for such allocations of order higher than 0. It still used __GFP_ATOMIC, though. Then, commit1ebbb21811("mm/page_alloc: explicitly define how __GFP_HIGH non-blocking allocations accesses reserves") just turned that check for !__GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM, ignoring that high atomic reserves were expected to test for __GFP_HIGH. This leads to high atomic reserves being added for high-order GFP_NOWAIT allocations and others that clear __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM, which is unexpected. Later, those reserves lead to 0-order allocations going to the slow path and starting reclaim.

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.
