[PATCHv4 24/39] thp, mm: truncate support for transparent huge page cache

From: Kirill A. Shutemov
Date: Sat May 11 2013 - 21:24:43 EST


From: "Kirill A. Shutemov" <kirill.shutemov@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

If we starting position of truncation is in tail page we have to spilit
the huge page page first.

We also have to split if end is within the huge page. Otherwise we can
truncate whole huge page at once.
