Series mm: swap: mTHP swap allocator base on swap cluster order | expand

Commit Message

Track the nonfull cluster as well as the empty cluster
on lists. Each order has one nonfull cluster list.

The cluster will remember which order it was used during
new cluster allocation.

When the cluster has free entry, add to the nonfull[order]
list. Allocation use the nonfull cluster list before using
the the free cluster list.

This improves the mTHP swap allocation success rate.

There are limitations if the distribution of numbers of
different orders of mTHP changes a lot. e.g. there are a lot
of nonfull cluster assign to order A while later time there
are a lot of order B allocation while very little allocation
in order A. Currently the cluster used by order A will not
reused by order B unless the cluster is 100% empty.
