Subject: [PATCH RFC 09/13] mm: move _large_mapcount to _mapcount in page[1] of a large folio
Date: Sun, 12 Apr 2026 20:59:40 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260412-mapcount-v1-9-05e8dfab52e0@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260412-mapcount-v1-0-05e8dfab52e0@kernel.org>

Now that the _mapcount in tail pages is completely unused, we can
re-purpose it to ... store another mapcount.

In theory, it should now unnecessary to initialize the large mapcount to -1
in prep_compound_head(), but let's keep doing that for now.
