Re: [PATCH v2 15/28] gup: Add try_get_folio() and try_grab_folio()

From: John Hubbard

On 1/9/22 20:23, Matthew Wilcox (Oracle) wrote:
Convert try_get_compound_head() into try_get_folio() and convert
try_grab_compound_head() into try_grab_folio(). Also convert
hpage_pincount_add() to folio_pincount_add(). Add a temporary
try_grab_compound_head() wrapper around try_grab_folio() to
let us convert callers individually.
