From: Manfred Spraul <manfred@colorfullife.com>

At present slab is using 2-order allocations for the size-2048 cache.  Of
course, this can affect networking quite seriously.

The patch ensures that slab will never use more than a 1-order allocation
for objects which have a size of less than 2*PAGE_SIZE.

From: Nick Piggin <piggin@cyberone.com.au>

Add a little helper macro for a common list extraction operation in vmscan.c

The current refill logic in refill_inactive_zone() takes an arbitrarily large
number of pages and chops it down to SWAP_CLUSTER_MAX*4, regardless of the
size of the zone.

This has the effect of reducing the amount of refilling of large zones
proportionately much more than of small zones.

We made this change in may 2003 and I'm damned if I remember why.  let's put
it back so we don't truncate the refill count and see what happens.

- prevent nr_scan_inactive from going negative

- compare `count' with SWAP_CLUSTER_MAX, not `max_scan'

- Use ">= SWAP_CLUSTER_MAX", not "> SWAP_CLUSTER_MAX".

From: Nick Piggin <piggin@cyberone.com.au>

Use a "refill_counter" for inactive list scanning, similar to the one used
for active list scanning.  This batches up scanning now that we precisely
balance ratios, and don't round up the amount to be done.

No observed benefits, but I imagine it would lower the acquisition
frequency of the lru locks in some cases, and make codepaths more efficient
in general due to cache niceness.

This is just a random unsubstantiated tuning tweak: don't immediately
throttle page allocators and kwapd when the going is getting heavier: scan a
bit more of the LRU before throttling.
