So this really isn't all that new, but I just wanted to confirm my
results from last week. We'll see if bisection shows up something
interesting.

I just finished bisecting this and git reports:

	3750280f8bd0ed01753a72542756a8c82ab27933 is the first bad commit

I'm attaching the complete bisection log and a diff of all the changes
applied on top of the bad commit to make it compile and run on my board.
Most of the patch is probably not important, though. There are two hunks
which have the pageblock changes I already posted an two other hunks
with the patch you posted earlier.

I hope this helps. If you want me to run any other tests, please let me
know.

Can you test with this on top please?

That doesn't build on top of the bad commit. Or is it supposed to go on
top of next-20120926?

It doesn't build or do you mean it doesn't apply? Assuming the problem
was that it didn't apply then try this one. It applies on top of
next-20120928 which is the closest tag I have to next-20120926.

mm: compaction: Cache if a pageblock was scanned and no pages were isolated -fix3

CMA requires that the PG_migrate_skip hint be skipped but it was only
skipping it when isolating pages for migration, not for free. Ensure
cc->isolate_skip_hint gets passed in both cases.

This is a fix for
mm-compaction-cache-if-a-pageblock-was-scanned-and-no-pages-were-isolated-fix.patch

Signed-off-by: Mel Gorman <mgorman@suse.de>

Acked-by: Minchan Kim <minchan@kernel.org>

But please resend below compile error fixing.

Thanks Minchan. I did resent this patch to Andrew with the subject "[PATCH]
mm: compaction: Cache if a pageblock was scanned and no pages were isolated
-fix3". It should have had the build errors fixed but has not been
picked up yet.
