Subject: Re: [PATCH v2 02/11] mm: convert track_pfn_insert() to pfnmap_setup_cachemode*()

* David Hildenbrand <david@redhat.com> [250512 08:34]:
> ... by factoring it out from track_pfn_remap() into
> pfnmap_setup_cachemode() and provide pfnmap_setup_cachemode_pfn() as
> a replacement for track_pfn_insert().
>
> For PMDs/PUDs, we keep checking a single pfn only. Add some documentation,
> and also document why it is valid to not check the whole pfn range.
>
> We'll reuse pfnmap_setup_cachemode() from core MM next.
