Vishal Moola (Oracle) 6d6635749d mm/memory: add vm_normal_folio()
[ Upstream commit 318e9342fb ]

Patch series "Convert deactivate_page() to folio_deactivate()", v4.

Deactivate_page() has already been converted to use folios.  This patch
series modifies the callers of deactivate_page() to use folios.  It also
introduces vm_normal_folio() to assist with folio conversions, and
converts deactivate_page() to folio_deactivate() which takes in a folio.

This patch (of 4):

Introduce a wrapper function called vm_normal_folio().  This function
calls vm_normal_page() and returns the folio of the page found, or null if
no page is found.

This function allows callers to get a folio from a pte, which will
eventually allow them to completely replace their struct page variables
with struct folio instead.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
