[merged mm-stable] mm-split-folio_pte_batch-into-folio_pte_batch-and-folio_pte_batch_flags.patch removed from -mm tree

[Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org>]

The quilt patch titled
     Subject: mm: split folio_pte_batch() into folio_pte_batch() and folio_pte_batch_flags()
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     mm-split-folio_pte_batch-into-folio_pte_batch-and-folio_pte_batch_flags.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: split folio_pte_batch() into folio_pte_batch() and folio_pte_batch_flags()
Date: Wed, 2 Jul 2025 12:49:25 +0200

Many users (including upcoming ones) don't really need the flags etc, and
can live with the possible overhead of a function call.

So let's provide a basic, non-inlined folio_pte_batch(), to avoid code
bloat while still providing a variant that optimizes out all flag checks
at runtime.  folio_pte_batch_flags() will get inlined into
folio_pte_batch(), optimizing out any conditionals that depend on input
flags.

folio_pte_batch() will behave like folio_pte_batch_flags() when no flags
are specified.  It's okay to add new users of folio_pte_batch_flags(), but
using folio_pte_batch() if applicable is preferred.

So, before this change, folio_pte_batch() was inlined into the C file
optimized by propagating constants within the resulting object file.

With this change, we now also have a folio_pte_batch() that is optimized
by propagating all constants.  But instead of having one instance per
object file, we have a single shared one.

In zap_present_ptes(), where we care about performance, the compiler
already seem to generate a call to a common inlined folio_pte_batch()
variant, shared with fork() code.  So calling the new non-inlined variant
should not make a difference.

While at it, drop the "addr" parameter that is unused.
