[PATCHv3 1/6] mm/page_vma_mapped: Track if the page is mapped across page table boundary
Posted by Kiryl Shutsemau 1 week, 1 day ago
From: Kiryl Shutsemau <kas@kernel.org>

Add a PVMW_PGTABLE_CROSSSED flag that page_vma_mapped_walk() will set if
the page is mapped across page table boundary. Unlike other PVMW_*
flags, this one is result of page_vma_mapped_walk() and not set by the
caller.

folio_referenced_one() will use it to detect if it safe to mlock the
folio.

I managed to spell CROSSED with three 'S' all over the patchset :-]

I don't want to spam with new revision.

The fixed version is here:
