[RFC PATCH v3 1/2] ext4/xfs: add page refcount helper

From: Ralph Campbell
Date: Thu Oct 01 2020 - 14:17:42 EST


There are several places where ZONE_DEVICE struct pages assume a reference
count == 1 means the page is idle and free. Instead of open coding this,
add a helper function to hide this detail.
