It will result frequently refill pcp page from buddy and release pcp page to buddy. > As is, the patch could result in a batch request of 0 and  I foget this, the patch need some improve, thanks. > fall through to allocating from the zone list anyway defeating the > purpose of the PCP allocator and probably regressing performance in some > csaes. Same as I understand，how about set high/batch for each order in pcplist， or just share pcp batch value only set high for each order?  It looks like strange for pcp count beyond pcp high in common case. If each order has it's own pcp high value, that behaviour is same as pcplist which only contains order 0.
