If all the records in an xfarray subset live within the same memory page, we can short-circuit even more quicksort recursion by mapping that page into the local CPU and using the kernel's heapsort function to sort the subset. On the author's computer, this reduces the runtime by another 15% on a 500,000 element array. Signed-off-by: Darrick J.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
