Subject: mm: remove page->order
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=9d003dec972563efb8ce14c9962af3652d0e201d;p=thirdparty%2Fkernel%2Fstable.git

mm: remove page->order

We already use page->private for storing the order of a page while it's in
the buddy allocator system; extend that to also storing the order while
it's in the pcp_llist.
