mm/damon/core: handle unreset probe_hits in probe_hits_mvsum()
If damon_update_monitoring_result() is called at the end of the aggregation interval, probe_hits is not reset. That's because the value will be exposed to the user via damon_region_aggregated trace event. Meanwhile, damon_probe_hits_mvsum() can be called in this state. Due to its logic, it will return a value that is incorrectly high. This could happen if the user requested DAMOS schemes applied regions sysfs files update exactly in the time sequence. The impact is minor, but better to avoid. Check the timing and simply return the fully aggregated last_probe_hits, like damon_nr_accesses_mvsum() also does. It is not 100% accurate since it is the last interval's aggregation. But better than the value that is completely reset.

mm/damon/core: update probe hits for new parameter commit
Users can update DAMON parameters at runtime. If the samples and/or aggregation intervals are updated in this way, monitoring results depending on the intervals should also be updated for a more accurate snapshot. The age and nr_accesses are properly updated, while probe_hits are not updated in the way. Do the update.

mm/damon/core: remove comment and test for nr_to_bp() divide-by-zero
Patch series "mm/damon: update probe hits for runtime parameter commits".
DAMON users can update DAMON parameters such as sampling and aggregation
intervals at runtime. For such changes, monitoring results that depend on
the intervals should be properly updated for better accuracy. For
example, the access frequency counter (nr_accesses) is updated. The data
attribute monitoring counter (probe_hits) is not being updated, though.
Do the updates for new parameters.
Patch 1 removes obsolete comments and test code for a function that this
series will touch. Patches 2-5 rename functions that are being used for
nr_accesses update, to be able to be used for probe_hits without
confusion. Patch 6 does the probe_hits update. Patch 7 update
damon_probe_hits_mvsum() to cover a corner case from the update for better
accuracy.
This patch (of 7):
The comments on damon_nr_accesses_to_accesses_bp() and its unit test warn
it can trigger division-by-zero when the aggregation interval is zero.

x86/mm: stop marking page tables as MIX_SECTION_INFO
There is no good reason to mark boot page tables as MIX_SECTION_INFO: we only free boot page tables when they are completely empty, and memory offlining/hotunplug doesn't benefit from it in any way. So just stop marking page tables as MIX_SECTION_INFO. In free_pagetable(), we can now simply free reserved pages directly.

mm: provide free_reserved_pages(), removing x86 variant
Let's extend free_reserved_page() in page_alloc.c to free_reserved_pages(), dropping the custom x86 variant. The common-code variant will consume an order, so adjust the x86 callers accordingly. Make free_reserved_pages() assume that we are freeing ordinary high-order pages, just with the special "reserved" flavor. The target use case for now is freeing vmemmap PMD pages. Set the refcount directly to 0 (instead of 1) and call __free_frozen_pages(). Set the page count to 0 before clearing PG_reserved, so someone checking PG_reserved (and not finding it set) to then try grabbing a ref would not suddenly have that ref be dropped. That is arguably cleaner and safer than the old way of doing it. Add some kerneldoc. Use a single adjust_managed_page_count() call.

mm: nommu: fix the error path when vma_iter_prealloc() fails
When vma_iter_prealloc() fails in do_mmap(), it jumps to error_just_free
as a error path of this function, but there are several possible issues.
1) It jumps to error_just_free without updating ret to -ENOMEM, meaning
do_mmap() will return 0 on failure.
2) The error path unconditionally frees the region struct. Since the
region was already added to the global nommu_region_tree via
add_nommu_region(), leaving it makes a potential dangling pointer in
the tree and may cause a use-after-free on the next tree walk.
3) If do_mmap() finds an existing overlapping shared region, it
increments its usage, sets region to this existing pregion, and jumps
to share:
region = pregion;
result = start;
goto share;
When vma_iter_prealloc() fails and jumps to error_just_free, the
error path unconditionally frees the region:
error:
...
if (region->vm_file)
fput(region->vm_file);
kmem_cache_free(vm_region_jar, region);
This potentially leaves a dangling pointer in nommu_region_tree and
causes RB-tree corruption.
4) When establishing a new private mapping, do_mmap_private() allocates
physical pages and assigns them to region->vm_start:
base = alloc_pages_exact(total << PAGE_SHIFT, GFP_KERNEL);
...
region->vm_start = (unsigned long) base;
If we later fail at vma_iter_prealloc() and jump to error_just_free,
the region struct is freed, but the backing physical memory isn't freed
via free_page_series().
5) In the error label of do_mmap(), the vm_area_struct allocated is
freed by vm_area_free(vma) but not called after vma_close(), leaving
potential memory leak which should be handled by a custom .close
handler of vm_ops.
This commit fixes those issues by introducing new jump label,
error_vma_iter_prealloc, to correctly handle the error case of
vma_iter_prealloc(), updating ret value (1), and move the region updates
after the place that the allocation is finished (2).
Additionally, the commit removes the existing goto label, error, and
consolidates to error_just_free as existing `goto error;` code blocks
always release nommu_region_sem.
Moreover, it only frees region allocated in this request to avoid
freeing the shared, existing region shared by other processes (3), and
free physical memory when do_mmap_private() allocates (4). It also add
vma_close() before vm_area_free() to fix the potential leak (5).
Those issues are discovered by Sashiko, linked below.

selftests/mm: add userfaultfd RWP tests
Coverage for UFFDIO_REGISTER_MODE_RWP and UFFDIO_RWPROTECT:
rwp-async async mode — touch pages, verify permissions are
auto-restored without a message
rwp-sync sync mode — access blocks, handler resolves via
UFFDIO_RWPROTECT
rwp-pagemap PAGEMAP_SCAN reports still-cold pages via
inverted PAGE_IS_ACCESSED
rwp-mprotect RWP survives mprotect(PROT_NONE) ->
mprotect(PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE) round-trip
rwp-gup GUP walks through a protnone RWP PTE (pipe
write/read drives the GUP path)
rwp-async-toggle UFFDIO_SET_MODE flips between sync and async
without re-registering
rwp-close closing the uffd restores page permissions
rwp-fork RWP survives fork() with EVENT_FORK; child's
PTEs keep the uffd bit
rwp-fork-pin RWP survives fork() on an RO-longterm-pinned
anon page (forces copy_present_page()); child
read auto-resolves and clears the bit, proving
PAGE_NONE was in place
rwp-wp-exclusive register with MODE_WP|MODE_RWP returns -EINVAL
All tests run against anon, shmem, shmem-private, hugetlb, and
hugetlb-private memory, except rwp-fork-pin which is anon-only —
copy_present_page() is the private-anon pinned-exclusive fork path.
Snapshot the RWP additions into tools/include/uapi/linux/userfaultfd.h so
the selftest builds without requiring "make headers" first, matching the
mechanism established by commit

userfaultfd: add UFFDIO_SET_MODE for runtime sync/async toggle
Add an ioctl to toggle async mode at runtime without re-registering the userfaultfd. This allows a VMM to switch between sync and async RWP modes on-the-fly -- for example, starting in async mode for working set scanning, then switching to sync mode to intercept faults during page eviction. UFFDIO_SET_MODE takes an enable/disable bitmask of UFFD_FEATURE_* flags. Only UFFD_FEATURE_RWP_ASYNC is toggleable today; the ioctl rejects any other bit with -EINVAL. Enabling RWP_ASYNC also requires RWP to have been negotiated at UFFDIO_API time, mirroring the UFFDIO_API invariant. Fault-path readers of ctx->features run under mmap_read_lock or a per-VMA lock; the RMW takes mmap_write_lock and calls vma_start_write() on every UFFD-armed VMA, so those readers are fully excluded. userfaultfd_show_fdinfo(), however, reads ctx->features without any lock, so the RMW is written as a single WRITE_ONCE and fdinfo reads it with READ_ONCE. That keeps the lockless observer from seeing a mid-RMW intermediate and removes the audit burden when new toggleable bits are added later. When switching to async, pending sync waiters are woken so they retry and auto-resolve under the new mode.

userfaultfd: add UFFD_FEATURE_RWP_ASYNC for async fault resolution
Sync RWP delivers a message and blocks the faulting thread until the handler resolves the fault. For working-set tracking the VMM does not need the message: it just needs to know, at scan time, which pages were touched. Async RWP serves that use case — the kernel restores access in-place and the faulting thread continues without blocking. The VMM reconstructs the access pattern after the fact via PAGEMAP_SCAN: pages whose uffd bit is still set (inverted PAGE_IS_ACCESSED) were not re-accessed since the last RWP cycle. Worth calling out: async resolution upgrades writable private anon PTEs via pte_mkwrite() when can_change_pte_writable() allows, mirroring do_numa_page(). Without it, every re-access of an RWP'd writable page would COW-fault a second time. UFFD_FEATURE_RWP_ASYNC requires UFFD_FEATURE_RWP.

mm/pagemap: add PAGE_IS_ACCESSED for RWP tracking
PAGEMAP_SCAN already reports PAGE_IS_WRITTEN from the inverted uffd PTE bit, targeting the UFFDIO_WRITEPROTECT workflow. UFFDIO_RWPROTECT reuses the same PTE bit as a marker for read-write protection, but "has been written" and "has been accessed" are distinct semantic signals — they happen to share one PTE bit today only because the two implementations share infrastructure. Give RWP its own pagemap category so the UAPI does not conflate them: PAGE_IS_WRITTEN reported on VM_UFFD_WP VMAs, !pte_uffd(pte) PAGE_IS_ACCESSED reported on VM_UFFD_RWP VMAs, !pte_uffd(pte) Both still read the same PTE bit today, but each is scoped to the VMA whose registered mode makes the bit meaningful. If a future implementation moves RWP to a separate PTE bit, only PAGE_IS_ACCESSED switches over. This is a UAPI narrowing. Outside VM_UFFD_WP VMAs the uffd bit is always clear, so PAGEMAP_SCAN used to flag PAGE_IS_WRITTEN on every present PTE there — a meaningless duplicate of PAGE_IS_PRESENT. Now PAGE_IS_WRITTEN fires only inside VM_UFFD_WP VMAs. pagemap_hugetlb_category() now takes the vma like its PTE/PMD peers.

mm/userfaultfd: add RWP fault delivery and expose UFFDIO_REGISTER_MODE_RWP
Wire the fault side of read-write protection tracking and turn the
userspace interface on.
An RWP-protected PTE is PAGE_NONE with the uffd bit set. The PROT_NONE
triggers a fault on any access; the uffd bit distinguishes it from plain
mprotect(PROT_NONE) or NUMA hinting.
Fault dispatch, per level:
PTE handle_pte_fault() -> do_uffd_rwp()
PMD __handle_mm_fault() -> do_huge_pmd_uffd_rwp()
hugetlb hugetlb_fault() -> hugetlb_handle_userfault()
The RWP branches gate on userfaultfd_pte_rwp() /
userfaultfd_huge_pmd_rwp() (VM_UFFD_RWP plus the uffd bit) and fall
through to do_numa_page() / do_huge_pmd_numa_page() otherwise. Each
delivers a UFFD_PAGEFAULT_FLAG_RWP message through handle_userfault(); the
handler resolves it with UFFDIO_RWPROTECT clearing MODE_RWP.
userfaultfd_must_wait() and userfaultfd_huge_must_wait() add matching
protnone+uffd waiters so sync-mode fault handlers block correctly.
Expose the UAPI:
UFFDIO_REGISTER_MODE_RWP -> UFFD_API_REGISTER_MODES
UFFD_FEATURE_RWP -> UFFD_API_FEATURES
_UFFDIO_RWPROTECT -> UFFD_API_RANGE_IOCTLS
UFFD_API_RANGE_IOCTLS_BASIC
UFFD_FEATURE_RWP is masked out at UFFDIO_API time when PROT_NONE is not
available or VM_UFFD_RWP aliases VM_NONE (32-bit), so userspace never sees
an advertised-but-broken feature.
Works on anonymous, shmem, and hugetlb memory.

userfaultfd: add UFFDIO_REGISTER_MODE_RWP and UFFDIO_RWPROTECT plumbing
Add the userspace interface for read-write protection tracking:
- UFFDIO_REGISTER_MODE_RWP register a range for RWP tracking
- UFFD_FEATURE_RWP capability bit
- UFFDIO_RWPROTECT install / remove RWP on a range
Introduce CONFIG_USERFAULTFD_RWP, auto-selected on 64-bit kernels with
ARCH_HAS_PTE_PROTNONE and HAVE_ARCH_USERFAULTFD_WP. The symbol gates
VM_UFFD_RWP (previously aliased to VM_NONE) and the smaps/trace-flag hooks
added in the preparatory patches; without it the UAPI bits added here have
nothing to drive and would be unreachable.
Registration sets VM_UFFD_RWP on the VMA. Combining MODE_WP with MODE_RWP
is rejected because both modes claim the uffd PTE bit.
UFFDIO_RWPROTECT is the bidirectional counterpart of
UFFDIO_WRITEPROTECT:
- MODE_RWP change_protection() with MM_CP_UFFD_RWP
installs PAGE_NONE and sets the uffd bit on
present PTEs
- !MODE_RWP change_protection() with MM_CP_UFFD_RWP_RESOLVE
restores vma->vm_page_prot and clears the bit
userfaultfd_clear_vma() runs the same resolve pass on unregister so RWP
state cannot outlive the uffd.
Re-registering a range must not drop a mode that installs per-PTE markers
(WP or RWP); doing so returns -EBUSY. This also closes a pre-existing
window where re-registering without MODE_WP would strand uffd-wp markers:
before, those caused extra write-faults but were otherwise benign; with
RWP preservation in place, a subsequent mprotect() on a VM_UFFD_RWP VMA
would silently promote the stale markers to RWP.
The feature is not yet advertised. UFFDIO_REGISTER_MODE_RWP,
UFFD_FEATURE_RWP, and _UFFDIO_RWPROTECT are intentionally absent from
UFFD_API_REGISTER_MODES, UFFD_API_FEATURES, and UFFD_API_RANGE_IOCTLS, so
UFFDIO_API masks them out and the register-mode validator rejects the bit.
The follow-up patch adds fault dispatch and exposes the UAPI.

mm: handle VM_UFFD_RWP in khugepaged, rmap, and GUP
Three mm paths outside the fault handler gate on the uffd PTE bit today: khugepaged (skip collapse on ranges carrying markers), rmap (cap unmap batching), and GUP (force a fault through gup_can_follow_protnone). Extend each to treat VM_UFFD_RWP the same as VM_UFFD_WP; otherwise per-PTE RWP state is silently destroyed or bypassed. khugepaged: try_collapse_pte_mapped_thp() and file_backed_vma_is_retractable() already refuse to collapse or retract page tables on ranges carrying the uffd PTE bit. Broaden the VMA predicate from userfaultfd_wp() to userfaultfd_protected() so VM_UFFD_RWP ranges get the same protection. hpage_collapse_scan_pmd() needs no change — its existing pte_uffd() check already catches an RWP PTE because it carries the uffd bit. rmap: folio_unmap_pte_batch() caps batching at 1 for VM_UFFD_RWP so the restore path handles each PTE with its own marker. GUP: gup_can_follow_protnone() forces a fault on VM_UFFD_RWP VMAs regardless of FOLL_HONOR_NUMA_FAULT. RWP uses protnone as an access-tracking marker, not for NUMA hinting, so any GUP — read or write — must go through the userfaultfd fault path.

mm: preserve RWP marker across PTE rewrites
The uffd PTE bit must survive any kernel path that rewrites a PTE on a VM_UFFD_RWP VMA, otherwise the marker that carries PAGE_NONE semantics is silently dropped and the next access leaks past RWP tracking. Wire the preservation through every path that rewrites a VM_UFFD_RWP PTE. Swap and device-exclusive: do_swap_page(), restore_exclusive_pte(), and unuse_pte() (swapoff()) re-apply PAGE_NONE when the swap PTE carries the uffd bit and the VMA has VM_UFFD_RWP. Migration: remove_migration_pte() and remove_migration_pmd() do the same after the migration entry is replaced with a real PTE/PMD. Fork: __copy_present_ptes(), copy_present_page(), copy_nonpresent_pte(), copy_huge_pmd(), copy_huge_non_present_pmd(), and copy_hugetlb_page_range() keep the uffd bit on the child when the destination VMA has VM_UFFD_RWP, matching the existing VM_UFFD_WP handling. Add VM_UFFD_RWP to VM_COPY_ON_FORK so the flag itself propagates. mprotect(): change_pte_range() and change_huge_pmd() restore PAGE_NONE after pte_modify()/pmd_modify() have recomputed the base protection from a (possibly user-changed) vm_page_prot. pte_modify() preserves _PAGE_UFFD, so the bit stays; we just have to force PAGE_NONE back on top.

mm: add MM_CP_UFFD_RWP change_protection() flag
Preparatory patch. Add the change_protection() primitive that userfaultfd RWP will use. An RWP-protected PTE is PAGE_NONE with the uffd PTE bit set. The PROT_NONE half makes the CPU fault on any access; the uffd bit distinguishes an RWP fault from a plain mprotect(PROT_NONE) or NUMA hinting fault. MM_CP_UFFD_WP and MM_CP_UFFD_RWP share the same PTE bit, so the two cannot be used together on the same range. Two new change_protection() flags: MM_CP_UFFD_RWP install PAGE_NONE and set the uffd bit MM_CP_UFFD_RWP_RESOLVE restore vma->vm_page_prot, clear the uffd bit Both are wired through change_pte_range(), change_huge_pmd(), and hugetlb_change_protection() so anon, shmem, THP, and hugetlb all share the same semantics.

Preparatory patch for userfaultfd read-write protection (RWP). RWP extends userfaultfd protection from plain write-protection (WP) to full read-write protection: accesses to an RWP-protected range -- reads as well as writes -- trap through userfaultfd. Reserve VM_UFFD_RWP, add the userfaultfd_rwp() and userfaultfd_protected() helpers, and wire up the smaps "ur" entry and the trace-flag table the rest of the series will use. The flag is gated on CONFIG_USERFAULTFD_RWP, which is introduced together with the UAPI in a later patch; until then VM_UFFD_RWP aliases VM_NONE and every downstream check folds to dead code.

The uffd VMA-flag helpers read vma->vm_flags directly. Now that config-gated per-mode masks exist, switch them to the vma_flags_t accessor vma_test_any_mask(), which is the going-forward API and keeps a single place (the VMA_UFFD_* masks) that knows which modes are available on the current build. No functional change: vma_flags_t is in union with vm_flags, so the same bits are read, and the masks fold to the same code the open-coded vm_flags tests produced -- verified identical on gcc and clang, 32- and 64-bit.

The uffd-wp PTE bit is about to gain a second consumer: userfaultfd RWP
will use the same bit to mark access-tracking PTEs, distinct from
mprotect(PROT_NONE) or NUMA-hinting PTEs. WP vs RWP semantics come from
the VMA flag; the bit is just "uffd has claimed this entry." Drop the

mm: decouple protnone helpers from CONFIG_NUMA_BALANCING
Patch series "userfaultfd: working set tracking for VM guest memory", v10. This series adds userfaultfd support for tracking the working set of VM guest memory, so a VMM can identify hot pages and reclaim cold ones to tiered or remote storage. This patch (of 15): pte_protnone() and pmd_protnone() detect present-but-inaccessible page table entries. This capability is useful beyond NUMA balancing -- for example, userfaultfd working set tracking uses protnone PTEs to track page access without unmapping pages. Introduce CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_PTE_PROTNONE to decouple the protnone PTE infrastructure from CONFIG_NUMA_BALANCING. The six architectures that support protnone PTEs (x86_64, arm64, powerpc, s390, riscv, loongarch) now select this option, and CONFIG_NUMA_BALANCING depends on it. No functional change -- the same set of architectures continues to have working protnone support, but the infrastructure is now available independently of NUMA balancing.

mm/swap: colocate page-cluster sysctl with swap readahead
Patch series "mm: clean up folio LRU and swap declarations", v9.
This series splits folio LRU and swap cleanup into three steps:
- move the page-cluster sysctl next to swap readahead in
mm/swap_state.c
- rename mm/swap.c to mm/folio.c after the swap-specific code
moves out
- move MM-internal reclaim declarations out of include/linux/swap.h
After this series, swap cache and swap-in readahead stay in
mm/swap_state.c. Folio LRU helpers live in mm/folio.c, and MM-internal
reclaim/workingset declarations move from include/linux/swap.h to
mm/internal.h (public LRU helpers used outside mm/ remain in swap.h).
The first patch handles the swap-specific page-cluster state before the
file rename, so the rename commit only carries folio LRU code. The last
patch keeps the LRU helpers used outside mm/ in include/linux/swap.h and
moves the internal reclaim/workingset declarations to mm/internal.h.
This patch (of 3):
page_cluster and the vm.page-cluster sysctl are only used by swap-in
readahead in swap_state.c. Move them out of swap.c together with
swap_readahead_setup(), and make page_cluster static to that file.
Rename swap_setup() while moving it as well. The helper is internal to MM
and now only sets up swap readahead defaults and its sysctl hook, so the
more specific name matches its reduced scope.
Call swap_readahead_setup() from swap_init() after moving it, keeping the
readahead defaults and sysctl registration with swap_state.c
initialization.
swap_setup() previously lived in mm/swap.c, which is built
unconditionally, so the vm.page-cluster sysctl was registered also on
CONFIG_SWAP=n kernels. After moving the setup into swap_state.c, which is
built only when CONFIG_SWAP is enabled, vm.page-cluster is no longer
registered there. The knob only tunes swap-in readahead and had no effect
without swap.

mm: entirely remove lru_add_drain in do_swap_page
We are doing a lot of redundant lru_add_drain() calls in do_swap_page(),
especially for synchronous I/O devices. For example, the test program
below currently ends up draining lru_cache 100% of the time:
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
int i;
#define SIZE 100*1024*1024
while(1) {
volatile int *p = mmap(0, SIZE, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE,
MAP_PRIVATE | MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0);
for (int i = 0; i < SIZE/sizeof(int); i++)
p[i] = i%64;
madvise((void *)p, SIZE, MADV_PAGEOUT);
for (int i = 0; i < SIZE/sizeof(int); i++)
p[i] = i%64;
munmap(p, SIZE);
}
return 0;
}
Folio reuse now relies primarily on the exclusive hint, making lru_cache
draining to drop the refcount in lru_cache largely irrelevant. For a
kernel build with a minimal configuration running in a 1 GB memcg, this
patch skips more than 43,000 redundant local LRU drains.

mm: drop stale folio_ref_count()==1 check in do_swap_page reuse logic
The "we just allocated them without exposing them to the swapcache" case no longer exists, as Kairui has routed synchronous I/O through the swapcache as well in his series "unify swapin use swap cache and cleanup flags"[1]. As a result, folio_ref_count() should never be 1 in this path, since at least two references are held (base ref plus swapcache). Remove the folio_ref_count()==1 check and update the comment accordingly. The ksm_might_need_to_copy() check may allocate a fresh folio with folio_ref_count() == 1. Along that path, exclusive has already been set to true, so the folio can still be reused correctly.

mm: avoid unnecessary lru drain for wp_can_reuse_anon_folio()
Patch series "mm: drop redundant lru_add_drain in anon folio reuse paths", v3. We are doing a large number of redundant lru_add_drain() calls in both wp_can_reuse_anon_folio() and do_swap_page(), leading to LRU lock contention and unnecessary overhead. In wp_can_reuse_anon_folio(), we can check the refcount against the lru_cache before deciding to drain. In do_swap_page(), the drain is now entirely redundant after Kairui's work to route SYNC I/O through the swapcache in the same way as ASYNC I/O. Build the kernel within a 1 GB memcg using 20 threads with zRAM swap. The number of lru_add_drain() calls is reduced from 276,278 to 226,318, a reduction of about 18%. Build the kernel within an 800 MB memcg using 20 threads with zRAM swap. The number of lru_add_drain() calls is reduced from 778,950 to 541,149, a reduction of 30.5%. This patch (of 4): There is a case where `folio_ref_count(folio) == 3` and `!folio_test_swapcache(folio)`. In that case, both `folio_ref_count(folio) > 3` and `folio_ref_count(folio) > 1 + folio_test_swapcache(folio)` evaluate false, causing an unnecessary local LRU drain. During an Ubuntu boot, I observed over 5,000 redundant local LRU drains. For a kernel build with a minimal configuration, I observed more than 20,000 redundant drains. Fix this by checking against: `1 + in_swapcache + in_lrucache` instead of hardcoding `folio_ref_count(folio) > 3`.

mm/percpu-km: clear page->private before free them
Patch series "Keep tail page private zero at free and folio split", v3.
This patchset makes sure tail_page->private is zero before compound or
high-order pages are returned to the allocator. It also checks tail pages
that become new folio heads during large folio split, before their private
fields are used by new folios.
Note on ZONE_DEVICE and DAX page/folio
===
ZONE_DEVICE and DAX use prep_compound_tail() to reinitialize folios, so
tail_page->private was reset before this patchset. There was a concern
that after this patchset stale ->private can appear after ZONE_DEVICE/DAX
folio initialization. My reasoning is that no code sets ZONE_DEVICE/DAX
page->private, so their page->private stays zero all the time.
ZONE_DEVICE_PRIVATE page migration only supports anonymous memory without
swapcache, so after the migration ->private remains zero.
But let me know if my reasoning is wrong. It can be fixed by adding
->private zeroing code in ZONE_DEVICE/DAX folio initialization code.
Motivation
===
page->private is zeroed at page free time since commit
