[RFC PATCH V2 0/9] Introduce attach/clear_page_private to cleanup code

[Guoqing Jiang]

Hi,

Based on the previous thread [1], this patchset introduces attach_page_private
and clear_page_private to replace attach_page_buffers and __clear_page_buffers.
Thanks a lot for the constructive suggestions and comments from Christoph,
Matthew and Dave.

And sorry for cross post to different lists since it modifies different subsystems.

RFC -> RFC V2:

1. rename the new functions and add comments for them.
2. change the return type of attach_page_private.
3. call attach_page_private(newpage, clear_page_private(page)) to cleanup code further.
4. avoid potential use-after-free in orangefs.

Thanks,
Guoqing
