[merged mm-stable] mm-document-pxd_leaf-api.patch removed from -mm tree

[Andrew Morton]

The quilt patch titled
     Subject: mm: document pXd_leaf() API
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     mm-document-pxd_leaf-api.patch

This patch was dropped because it was merged into the mm-stable branch
of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm

Subject: mm: document pXd_leaf() API
Date: Mon, 18 Mar 2024 16:04:04 -0400

There's one small section already, but since we're going to remove
pXd_huge(), that comment may start to obsolete.

Rewrite that section with more information, hopefully with that the API is
crystal clear on what it implies.

 /*
- * p?d_leaf() - true if this entry is a final mapping to a physical address.
- * This differs from p?d_huge() by the fact that they are always available (if
- * the architecture supports large pages at the appropriate level) even
- * if CONFIG_HUGETLB_PAGE is not defined.
- * Only meaningful when called on a valid entry.
+ * pXd_leaf() is the API to check whether a pgtable entry is a huge page
+ * mapping.  It should work globally across all archs, without any
+ * dependency on CONFIG_* options.  For architectures that do not support
+ * huge mappings on specific levels, below fallbacks will be used.
+ *
+ * A leaf pgtable entry should always imply the following:
+ *
+ * - It is a "present" entry.  IOW, before using this API, please check it
+ *   with pXd_present() first. NOTE: it may not always mean the "present
+ *   bit" is set.  For example, PROT_NONE entries are always "present".
+ *
+ * - It should _never_ be a swap entry of any type.  Above "present" check
+ *   should have guarded this, but let's be crystal clear on this.
+ *
+ * - It should contain a huge PFN, which points to a huge page larger than
+ *   PAGE_SIZE of the platform.  The PFN format isn't important here.
+ *
+ * - It should cover all kinds of huge mappings (e.g., pXd_trans_huge(),
+ *   pXd_devmap(), or hugetlb mappings).
