Subject: [PATCH] mm: skip watermarks check for already isolated blocks in
 split_free_page()
Date: Thu, 08 Nov 2012 07:59:04 +0100

Since commit 2139cbe627b8 ("cma: fix counting of isolated pages") free
pages in isolated pageblocks are not accounted to NR_FREE_PAGES counters,
so watermarks check is not required if one operates on a free page in
isolated pageblock.
