Subject: [Patch v2 0/3] unify PMD scan results and remove redundant cleanup
Date: Fri, 14 Nov 2025 03:00:25 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251114030028.7035-1-richard.weiyang@gmail.com> (raw)

This small series addresses two minor cleanup opportunities in the hugepage
collapse logic.

The initial motivation arose during a code review of madvise_collapse(),
where it was noted that the function was missing a handler for
SCAN_PMD_NONE. This oversight exposed the inconsistent handling of
SCAN_PMD_NULL and SCAN_PMD_NONE.

Since both scan results are functionally identical (they indicate the
absence of a PTE table), the primary patch unifies them into a single,
clearer identifier, SCAN_NO_PTE_TABLE.

The series also takes the opportunity to remove a redundant clearing of
the struct collapse_control.
