Subject: [PATCH] mm: Remove mlock_count from struct page
Date: Wed, 3 Sep 2025 20:10:39 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250903191041.1630338-1-willy@infradead.org> (raw)
All users now use folio->mlock_count so we can remove this element of
struct page. Move the useful comments over to struct folio.
