[PATCH v6 03/11] mm, compaction: rename COMPACT_PARTIAL to COMPACT_SUCCESS

From: Vlastimil Babka
Date: Wed Aug 10 2016 - 16:42:46 EST


COMPACT_PARTIAL has historically meant that compaction returned after doing
some work without fully compacting a zone. It however didn't distinguish if
compaction terminated because it succeeded in creating the requested high-order
page. This has changed recently and now we only return COMPACT_PARTIAL when
compaction thinks it succeeded, or the high-order watermark check in
compaction_suitable() passes and no compaction needs to be done.

So at this point we can make the return value clearer by renaming it to
COMPACT_SUCCESS. The next patch will remove some redundant tests for success
where compaction just returned COMPACT_SUCCESS.
