Patch series "Remove leftover mlock/munlock page wrappers".
We no longer need the various mlock page functions as all callers have
folios.
This patch (of 4):
This function now has no users. Also update the unevictable-lru
documentation to discuss folios instead of pages (mostly).

Patch series "Writeback folio conversions".
Remove more calls to compound_head() by passing folios around instead of
pages.
This patch (of 2):
The only caller of inode_attach_wb() which doesn't pass NULL already has a
folio, so convert the whole call-chain to take folios.

Replace alloc_zeroed_user_highpage_movable(). The main difference is
returning a folio containing a single page instead of returning the page,
but take the opportunity to rename the function to match other allocation
functions a little better and rewrite the documentation to place more
emphasis on the zeroing rather than the highmem aspect.

Convert function to use folios throughout. This is in preparation for the
removal of find_get_pages_range_tag(). This change removes 5 calls to
compound_head().
Initially the function was checking if the previous page index is truly
the previous page i.e. 1 index behind the current page. To convert to
folios and maintain this check we need to make the check folio->index !=
prev + folio_nr_pages(previous folio) since we don't know how many pages
are in a folio.
At index i == 0 the check is guaranteed to succeed, so to workaround
indexing bounds we can simply ignore the check for that specific index.
This makes the initial assignment of prev trivial, so I removed that as
well.
Also modify a comment in commit_checkpoint for consistency.

Also modified f2fs_all_cluster_page_ready to take in a folio_batch instead
of pagevec. This does NOT support large folios. The function currently
only utilizes folios of size 1 so this shouldn't cause any issues right
now.
This version of the patch limits the number of pages fetched to
F2FS_ONSTACK_PAGES. If that ever happens, update the start index here
since filemap_get_folios_tag() updates the index to be after the last
found folio, not necessarily the last used page.

This is the equivalent of find_get_pages_range_tag(), except for folios
instead of pages.
One noteable difference is filemap_get_folios_tag() does not take in a
maximum pages argument. It instead tries to fill a folio batch and stops
either once full (15 folios) or reaching the end of the search range.
The new function supports large folios, the initial function did not since
all callers don't use large folios.

Patch series "Convert to filemap_get_folios_tag()", v5.
This patch series replaces find_get_pages_range_tag() with
filemap_get_folios_tag(). This also allows the removal of multiple calls
to compound_head() throughout.
It also makes a good chunk of the straightforward conversions to folios,

This patch (of 23):
Add function filemap_grab_folio() to grab a folio from the page cache.
This function is meant to serve as a folio replacement for
grab_cache_page, and is used to facilitate the removal of

Pass vm_flags as a parameter to shmem_is_huge, rather than reading the
flags from the vm_area_struct in question. This allows the updated flags
from hugepage_madvise to be passed to the check, which is necessary
because madvise does not update the vm_area_struct's flags until after
hugepage_madvise returns.
This fixes an issue when shmem_enabled=madvise, where MADV_HUGEPAGE on
shmem was not able to register the mm_struct with khugepaged. Prior to
cd89fb065099, the mm_struct was registered by MADV_HUGEPAGE regardless of
the value of shmem_enabled (which was only checked when scanning vmas).

__GFP_ATOMIC serves little purpose. Its main effect is to set
ALLOC_HARDER which adds a few little boosts to increase the chance of an
allocation succeeding, one of which is to lower the water-mark at which it
will succeed.
It is *always* paired with __GFP_HIGH which sets ALLOC_HIGH which also
adjusts this watermark. It is probable that other users of __GFP_HIGH
should benefit from the other little bonuses that __GFP_ATOMIC gets.
__GFP_ATOMIC also gives a warning if used with __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM.
There is little point to this. We already get a might_sleep() warning if
__GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM is set.
__GFP_ATOMIC allows the "watermark_boost" to be side-stepped. It is
probable that testing ALLOC_HARDER is a better fit here.
__GFP_ATOMIC is used by tegra-smmu.c to check if the allocation might
sleep. This should test __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM instead.
This patch:
- removes __GFP_ATOMIC
- allows __GFP_HIGH allocations to ignore watermark boosting as well
as GFP_ATOMIC requests.
- makes other adjustments as suggested by the above.
The net result is not change to GFP_ATOMIC allocations. Other
allocations that use __GFP_HIGH will benefit from a few different extra
privileges. This affects:
xen, dm, md, ntfs3
the vermillion frame buffer
hibernation
ksm
swap
all of which likely produce more benefit than cost if these selected
allocation are more likely to succeed quickly.

accesses reserves
GFP_ATOMIC allocations get flagged ALLOC_HARDER which is a vague
description. In preparation for the removal of GFP_ATOMIC redefine
__GFP_ATOMIC to simply mean non-blocking and renaming ALLOC_HARDER to
ALLOC_NON_BLOCK accordingly. __GFP_HIGH is required for access to
reserves but non-blocking is granted more access. For example, GFP_NOWAIT
is non-blocking but has no special access to reserves. A __GFP_NOFAIL
blocking allocation is granted access similar to __GFP_HIGH if the only
alternative is an OOM kill.

RT tasks are allowed to dip below the min reserve but ALLOC_HARDER is
typically combined with ALLOC_MIN_RESERVE so RT tasks are a little
unusual. While there is some justification for allowing RT tasks access
to memory reserves, there is a strong chance that a RT task that is also
under memory pressure is at risk of missing deadlines anyway. Relax how
much reserves an RT task can access by treating it the same as __GFP_HIGH
allocations.
Note that in a future kernel release that the RT special casing will be
removed. Hard realtime tasks should be locking down resources in advance
and ensuring enough memory is available. Even a soft-realtime task like
audio or video live decoding which cannot jitter should be allocating both
memory and any disk space required up-front before the recording starts
instead of relying on reserves. At best, reserve access will only delay
the problem by a very short interval.

Patch series "Discard __GFP_ATOMIC", v3.
Neil's patch has been residing in mm-unstable as commit 2fafb4fe8f7a ("mm:
discard __GFP_ATOMIC") for a long time and recently brought up again.
Most recently, I was worried that __GFP_HIGH allocations could use
high-order atomic reserves which is unintentional but there was no
response so lets revisit -- this series reworks how min reserves are used,
protects highorder reserves and then finishes with Neil's patch with very
minor modifications so it fits on top.
There was a review discussion on renaming __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM to
__GFP_ALLOW_BLOCKING but I didn't think it was that big an issue and is
orthogonal to the removal of __GFP_ATOMIC.
There were some concerns about how the gfp flags affect the min reserves
but it never reached a solid conclusion so I made my own attempt.
The series tries to iron out some of the details on how reserves are used.
ALLOC_HIGH becomes ALLOC_MIN_RESERVE and ALLOC_HARDER becomes
ALLOC_NON_BLOCK and documents how the reserves are affected. For example,
ALLOC_NON_BLOCK (no direct reclaim) on its own allows 25% of the min
reserve. ALLOC_MIN_RESERVE (__GFP_HIGH) allows 50% and both combined
allows deeper access again. ALLOC_OOM allows access to 75%.
High-order atomic allocations are explicitly handled with the caveat that
no __GFP_ATOMIC flag means that any high-order allocation that specifies
GFP_HIGH and cannot enter direct reclaim will be treated as if it was
GFP_ATOMIC.
This patch (of 6):
__GFP_HIGH aliases to ALLOC_HIGH but the name does not really hint what it
means. As ALLOC_HIGH is internal to the allocator, rename it to
ALLOC_MIN_RESERVE to document that the min reserves can be depleted.

There is 8 byte page_ext->flags field allocated per page whenever
CONFIG_PAGE_EXTENSION is enabled. However, not every user of page_ext
uses flags. Therefore, check whether flags is needed at least by one user
and if so allocate space for it.
For example when page_table_check is enabled, on a machine with 128G
of memory before the fix:
[ 2.244288] allocated 536870912 bytes of page_ext
after the fix:
[ 2.160154] allocated 268435456 bytes of page_ext
Also, add a kernel-doc comment before page_ext_operations that describes
the fields, and remove check if need() is set, as that is now a required
field.

__HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SWP_EXCLUSIVE is now supported by all architectures that
support swp PTEs, so let's drop it.

Let's support __HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SWP_EXCLUSIVE by using bit 1. This bit
should be safe to use for our usecase.
Most importantly, we can still distinguish swap PTEs from PAGE_NONE PTEs
(see pte_present()) and don't use one of the two reserved attribute masks
(1101 and 1111). Attribute mask 1100 and 1110 now identify swap PTEs.
While at it, remove SWP_TYPE_BITS (not really helpful as it's not used in
the actual swap macros) and mask the type in __swp_entry().

Let's support __HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SWP_EXCLUSIVE just like we already do on
x86-64. After deciphering the PTE layout it becomes clear that there are
still unused bits for 2-level and 3-level page tables that we should be
able to use. Reusing a bit avoids stealing one bit from the swap offset.
While at it, mask the type in __swp_entry(); use some helper definitions
to make the macros easier to grasp.

Let's support __HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SWP_EXCLUSIVE by using bit 10, which is yet
unused for swap PTEs.
The pte_mkuptodate() is a bit weird in __pte_to_swp_entry() for a swap PTE
... but it only messes with bit 1 and 2 and there is a comment in
set_pte(), so leave these bits alone.
While at it, mask the type in __swp_entry().

Let's support __HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SWP_EXCLUSIVE by stealing one bit from the
type. Generic MM currently only uses 5 bits for the type
(MAX_SWAPFILES_SHIFT), so the stolen bit was effectively unused.

Let's support __HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SWP_EXCLUSIVE by reusing the SRMMU_DIRTY bit
as that seems to be safe to reuse inside a swap PTE. This avoids having
to steal one bit from the swap offset.
While at it, relocate the swap PTE layout documentation and use the same
style now used for most other archs. Note that the old documentation was
wrong: we use 20 bit for the offset and the reserved bits were 8 instead
of 7 bits in the ascii art.

Let's support __HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SWP_EXCLUSIVE by using bit 6 in the PTE,
reducing the swap type in the !CONFIG_X2TLB case to 5 bits. Generic MM
currently only uses 5 bits for the type (MAX_SWAPFILES_SHIFT), so the
stolen bit is effectively unused.
Interrestingly, the swap type in the !CONFIG_X2TLB case could currently
overlap with the _PAGE_PRESENT bit, because there is a sneaky shift by 1
in __pte_to_swp_entry() and __swp_entry_to_pte(). Bit 0-7 in the
architecture specific swap PTE would get shifted to bit 1-8 in the PTE.
As generic MM uses 5 bits only, this didn't matter so far.
While at it, mask the type in __swp_entry().

Let's support __HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SWP_EXCLUSIVE by stealing one bit from the
offset. This reduces the maximum swap space per file: on 32bit to 16 GiB
(was 32 GiB).
Note that this bit does not conflict with swap PMDs and could also be used
in swap PMD context later.

Let's support __HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SWP_EXCLUSIVE on 32bit and 64bit.
On 64bit, let's use MSB 56 (LSB 7), located right next to the page type.
On 32bit, let's use LSB 2 to avoid stealing one bit from the swap offset.
There seems to be no real reason why these bits cannot be used for swap
PTEs. The important part is that _PAGE_PRESENT and _PAGE_HASHPTE remain
0.
While at it, mask the type in __swp_entry() and remove _PAGE_BIT_SWAP_TYPE
from pte-e500.h: while it was used in 64bit code it was ignored in 32bit
code.

We already implemented support for 64bit book3s in commit bff9beaa2e80
("powerpc/pgtable: support __HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SWP_EXCLUSIVE for book3s")
Let's support __HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SWP_EXCLUSIVE also in 32bit by reusing yet
unused LSB 2 / MSB 29. There seems to be no real reason why that bit
cannot be used, and reusing it avoids having to steal one bit from the
swap offset.
