Subject: [PATCH 1/4] mm: vmscan: Correct use of pgdat_balanced in sleeping_prematurely
Date: Fri, 13 May 2011 15:03:21 +0100
Message-Id: <1305295404-12129-2-git-send-email-mgorman@suse.de>

Johannes Weiner poined out that the logic in commit [1741c877: mm:
kswapd: keep kswapd awake for high-order allocations until a percentage
of the node is balanced] is backwards. Instead of allowing kswapd to go
to sleep when balancing for high order allocations, it keeps it kswapd
running uselessly.
