When requesting memory allocation from a specific zone is not satisfied,
it will fall to lower zone to try allocating memory. In this case, lower
zone's ->lowmem_reserve[] will help protect its own memory resource. The
higher the relevant ->lowmem_reserve[] is, the harder the upper zone can
get memory from this lower zone.
However, this protection mechanism should be applied to populated zone,
but not an empty zone. So filling ->lowmem_reserve[] for empty zone is
not necessary, and may mislead people that it's valid data in that zone.

Here clear out zone->lowmem_reserve[] if zone is empty.

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.
