[PATCH 4/6] mm: introduce page->dma_pinned_flags, _count

From: john . hubbard
Date: Fri Oct 12 2018 - 02:00:44 EST


From: John Hubbard <jhubbard@xxxxxxxxxx>

Add two struct page fields that, combined, are unioned with
struct page->lru. There is no change in the size of
struct page. These new fields are for type safety and clarity.

Also add page flag accessors to test, set and clear the new
page->dma_pinned_flags field.

The page->dma_pinned_count field will be used in upcoming
patches
