Lucas Stach 424f6c4818 mm: alloc_contig: re-allow CMA to compact FS pages
Commit 73e64c51af ("mm, compaction: allow compaction for GFP_NOFS
requests") changed compation to skip FS pages if not explicitly allowed
to touch them, but missed to update the CMA compact_control.

This leads to a very high isolation failure rate, crippling performance
of CMA even on a lightly loaded system.  Re-allow CMA to compact FS
pages by setting the correct GFP flags, restoring CMA behavior and
performance to the kernel 4.9 level.

Fixes: 73e64c51af (mm, compaction: allow compaction for GFP_NOFS requests)

README

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
