The page reporting won't be triggered if the freeing page can't come up
with a free area, whose size is equal or bigger than the threshold (page
reporting order). The default page reporting order, equal to
@pageblock_order, is too huge on some architectures to trigger page
reporting. One example is ARM64 when 64KB base page size is used.
PAGE_SIZE: 64KB
pageblock_order: 13 (512MB)
MAX_ORDER: 14
This specifies the page reporting order to 5 (2MB) for this specific case
so that page reporting can be triggered.

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.
