[PATCH v6] drm: Optimise for continuous memory allocation

From: xinhui pan
Date: Sun Dec 18 2022 - 02:00:52 EST


Optimise a little when continuous memory request fails.

There are memory holes and continuous memory request usually fails when
order is too big.
Currently buddy only look for exactly order memory for such request.
Now we can try again to look for several smaller continuous memory on
failure.
