[PATCH v13 125/137] mm/filemap: Return only head pages from find_get_entries

From: Matthew Wilcox (Oracle)
Date: Mon Jul 12 2021 - 00:14:13 EST


All callers now expect head (and base) pages, and can handle multiple
head pages in a single batch, so make find_get_entries() behave that way.
Also take the opportunity to make it use the pagevec infrastructure
instead of open-coding how pvecs behave. This has the side-effect of
being able to append to a pagevec with existing contents, although we
don't make use of that functionality anywhere yet.
