With CONFIG_COMPACTION enabled, kswapd does not try to free contiguous free pages, even when it is woken for a higher order request. This could be bad for eg. jumbo frame network allocations, which are done from interrupt context and cannot compact memory themselves. Higher than before allocation failure rates in the network receive path have been observed in kernels with compaction enabled. Teach kswapd to defragment the memory zones in a node, but only if required and compaction is not deferred in a zone.
