On one node, for lower zone's ->lowmem_reserve[], it will show how much memory is reserved in this lower zone to avoid excessive page allocation from the relevant higher zone's fallback allocation. However, currently lower zone's lowmem_reserve[] element will be filled even though the relevant higher zone is empty. That doesnt' make sense and can cause confusion. E.g on node 0 of one system as below, it has zone DMA/DMA32/NORMAL/MOVABLE/DEVICE, among them zone MOVABLE/DEVICE are the highest and both are empty. In zone DMA/DMA32's protection array, we can see that it has value for zone MOVABLE and DEVICE.
