[RFC PATCH 9/9] mm/zswap: use highmem pages for compressed pool

From: Heesub Shin
Date: Tue Oct 14 2014 - 08:01:00 EST


Now that the zbud supports highmem, storing compressed anonymous pages
on highmem looks more reasonble. So, pass __GFP_HIGHMEM flag to zpool
when zswap allocates memory from it.
