From ddc58f27f9eee9117219936f77e90ad5b2e00e96 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Kirill A. Shutemov" Date: Fri, 15 Jan 2016 16:52:56 -0800 Subject: mm: drop tail page refcounting Tail page refcounting is utterly complicated and painful to support. It uses ->_mapcount on tail pages to store how many times this page is pinned. get_page() bumps ->_mapcount on tail page in addition to ->_count on head. This information is required by split_huge_page() to be able to distribute pins from head of compound page to tails during the split. We will need ->_mapcount to account PTE mappings of subpages of the compound page. We eliminate need in current meaning of ->_mapcount in tail pages by forbidding split entirely if the page is pinned. The only user of tail page refcounting is THP which is marked BROKEN for now. Let's drop all this mess. It makes get_page() and put_page() much simpler. Signed-off-by: Kirill A.
