[PATCH 1/2] mm/mm_init: factor out memmap_init_page_from_template()
From: Li Zhe
Date: Thu Nov 05 2026 - 07:13:50 EST
ZONE_DEVICE memmap initialization already uses a reusable struct page
template when initializing compound tail pages. The template mostly
contains invariant state, but a few fields still depend on the target
PFN and must be refreshed before copying the template into each
destination struct page.
Factor that operation into memmap_init_page_from_template() so other
boot-time memmap initialization paths can reuse the same helper.
No functional change intended.
