hmmm... I am confused. Since current_order is >= pageblock_order / 2 is unlikely, why current_order is >= pageblock_order isn't unlikely. Or there are other tips? Actually, I am also a little confused about why current_order should be unlikely greater than or equal to pageblock_order / 2. When borrowing pages with other migrate_type, we always search from MAX_ORDER-1, which is greater or equal to pageblock_order. -- Thanks.
