Seems we don't need to care about? "comp_ret" is useless anymore.

Just:

if (comp_ret || dlen > PAGE_SIZE - 64)
dlen = PAGE_SIZE;

And remove the checkings of comp_ret at the end.



We actually don't need to hold mutex if we are just copying folio.

Thanks.


Thanks for reviewing.

For comp_ret, can we consolidate all possible error codes as
incompressible data?

Maybe we still want these debug counters? I'm not sure.

I'm a bit torn, but ATM I have no strong opinions on these two error
codes. If you do decide to consolidate these two, may I ask you to
separate it into its own patch so that we can review + discuss it
separately?

Yeah, I also have no strong opinions on these two error codes,
it's just ok to keep them.
