From e3ebcf64381188a2744a9829a4eb5c2b60f1974c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Gerald Schaefer Date: Mon, 8 Oct 2012 16:30:07 -0700 Subject: thp: remove assumptions on pgtable_t type The thp page table pre-allocation code currently assumes that pgtable_t is of type "struct page *". This may not be true for all architectures, so this patch removes that assumption by replacing the functions prepare_pmd_huge_pte() and get_pmd_huge_pte() with two new functions that can be defined architecture-specific. It also removes two VM_BUG_ON checks for page_count() and page_mapcount() operating on a pgtable_t. Apart from the VM_BUG_ON removal, there will be no functional change introduced by this patch.
