[PATCH 1/3] mm/memory.c: Use folios in __copy_remote_vm_str()
Posted by Vishal Moola (Oracle) 2 months, 4 weeks ago
Use kmap_local_folio() instead of kmap_local_page().
Replaces 2 calls to compound_head() from unmap_and_put_page() with one.

This prepares us for the removal of unmap_and_put_page().

It's weird to go page -> folio -> page ... but maybe that's just the way 
it's supposed to work here ...
