Agreed.

I didn't enable CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC, so we will expect page private
should be cleared by del_page_from_free_list(), but I guess it only clears
the buddy's private field rather than original page's, so I added below
diff and check the dmesg, it looks stall private value in original page
will be left commonly... Let me know if I missed something?
