Perhaps we try to generalize from two data points (a slight improvement
over doing it from 1!), eg:
/* 4 seems good for 4k-page x86, 0 seems good for 64k page ppc64, so: */
unsigned int fault_around_order __read_mostly =
(16 - PAGE_SHIFT < 0 ? 0 : 16 - PAGE_SHIFT);
Rusty's bimodal answer doesn't seem the right starting point to me.
? It's not bimodal, it's graded. I think you misread?
Yikes, worse than misread, more like I was too rude even to read: sorry!
