[PATCH v2 11/28] mm: Make compound_pincount always available
From: Matthew Wilcox (Oracle)
Date: Sun Jan 09 2022 - 23:24:39 EST
Move compound_pincount from the third page to the second page, which
means it's available for all compound pages. That lets us delete
hpage_pincount_available().
On 32-bit systems, there isn't enough space for both compound_pincount
and compound_nr in the second page (it would collide with page->private,
which is in use for pages in the swap cache), so revert the optimisation
of storing both compound_order and compound_nr on 32-bit systems.
