[PATCH v4 14/15] selftests/mm: clarify alternate unmapping in compaction_test
Posted by Sayali Patil 7 hours ago
Add a comment explaining that every other entry in the list is
unmapped to intentionally create fragmentation with
locked pages before invoking check_compaction().

Fixes: bd67d5c15cc1 ("Test compaction of mlocked memory")
