David Hildenbrand 93146d98ce mm/memory_hotplug: document why shuffle_zone() is relevant 
It's not completely obvious why we have to shuffle the complete zone -
introduced in commit e900a918b0 ("mm: shuffle initial free memory to
improve memory-side-cache utilization") - because some sort of shuffling
is already performed when onlining pages via __free_one_page(), placing
MAX_ORDER-1 pages either to the head or the tail of the freelist.  Let's
document why we have to shuffle the complete zone when exposing larger,
contiguous physical memory areas to the buddy.

README 

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.
