[PATCH v2 2/7] mm/compaction: call list_is_{first}/{last} more intuitively in move_freelist_{head}/{tail}
Posted by Kemeng Shi 2 years, 3 months ago
We use move_freelist_head after list_for_each_entry_reverse to skip
recent pages. And there is no need to do actual move if all freepages
are searched in list_for_each_entry_reverse, e.g. freepage point to
first page in freelist. It's more intuitively to call list_is_first
with list entry as the first argument and list head as the second
argument to check if list entry is the first list entry instead of
call list_is_last with list entry and list head passed in reverse.

Similarly, call list_is_last in move_freelist_tail is more intuitively.
