Subject: [PATCH v2 1/2] mm/zbud: reuse unbuddied[0] as buddied in zbud_pool
Date:   Tue, 8 Jun 2021 19:45:14 +0800
Message-ID: <20210608114515.206992-2-linmiaohe@huawei.com>

Since commit 9d8c5b5284e4 ("mm: zbud: fix condition check on allocation
size"), zbud_pool.unbuddied[0] is always unused. We can reuse it as buddied
field to save some possible memory.
