+Subject: [PATCH 3/4] Fix: mm_compaction_migratepages changed in linux 6.9-rc1
+

+ mm: compaction: update the cc->nr_migratepages when allocating or freeing the freepages
+
+ Currently we will use 'cc->nr_freepages >= cc->nr_migratepages' comparison
+ to ensure that enough freepages are isolated in isolate_freepages(),
+ however it just decreases the cc->nr_freepages without updating
+ cc->nr_migratepages in compaction_alloc(), which will waste more CPU
+ cycles and cause too many freepages to be isolated.
+
+ So we should also update the cc->nr_migratepages when allocating or
+ freeing the freepages to avoid isolating excess freepages. And I can see
+ fewer free pages are scanned and isolated when running thpcompact on my
+ Arm64 server:
+
+ k6.7 k6.7_patched
+ Ops Compaction pages isolated 120692036.00 118160797.00
+ Ops Compaction migrate scanned 131210329.00 154093268.00
+ Ops Compaction free scanned 1090587971.00 1080632536.00
+ Ops Compact scan efficiency 12.03 14.26
+
+ Moreover, I did not see an obvious latency improvements, this is likely
+ because isolating freepages is not the bottleneck in the thpcompact test
+ case.
