Re: [PATCH 2/2] mm: Abort reclaim/compaction if compaction can proceed

If compaction can proceed, shrink_zones() stops doing any work but
the callers still shrink_slab(), raises the priority and potentially
sleeps.  This patch aborts direct reclaim/compaction entirely if
compaction can proceed.

This patch makes sense to me, but I have not tested it like
the first one.

Mel, have you tested this patch?  Did you see any changed
behaviour vs. just the first patch?

Having said that, I'm pretty sure the patch is ok :)
