[merged mm-stable] fs-proc-task_mmu-account-non-present-entries-as-maybe-shared-but-no-idea-how-often.patch removed from -mm tree

[Andrew Morton]

The quilt patch titled
     Subject: fs/proc/task_mmu: account non-present entries as "maybe shared, but no idea how often"
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     fs-proc-task_mmu-account-non-present-entries-as-maybe-shared-but-no-idea-how-often.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: fs/proc/task_mmu: account non-present entries as "maybe shared, but no idea how often"
Date: Fri, 7 Jun 2024 14:23:55 +0200

We currently rely on mapcount information for pages referenced by
non-present entries to calculate the USS (shared vs.  private) and the
PSS.

However, relying on mapcounts for non-present entries doesn't make any
sense.  We have to treat such entries as "maybe shared, but no idea how
often", implying that they will *not* get accounted towards the USS, and
will get fully accounted to the PSS (no idea how often shared).

There is one exception: device exclusive entries essentially behave like
present entries (e.g., mapcount incremented).

In smaps_pmd_entry(), use is_pfn_swap_entry() instead of
is_migration_entry(), which should not make a real difference but makes
the code look more similar to the PTE variant.

While at it, adjust the comments in smaps_account().
