[PATCH v2 0/2] Fix parameter passed to page_mapcount_is_type()

From: Gavin Shan
Date: Fri Mar 21 2025 - 08:03:16 EST


Found by code inspection. There are two places where the parameter
passed to page_mapcount_is_type() is (page->_mapcount), which is
incorrect since it should be one more than the value, as explained in
the comments to page_mapcount_is_type(): (a) page_has_type() in
page-flags.h (b) __dump_folio() in mm/debug.c

PATCH[1] fixes the parameter for (a)
PATCH[2] fixes the parameter for (b)

Note that the issue doesn't cause any visible impacts due to the
safety gap introduced by PGTY_mapcount_underflow limit. So the
tag 'Cc: stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx' isn't needed.

Changelog
=========
v2:
* Improved commit log (Vlastimi/David)
* Use page_type_has_type() in page_has_type() (David)
