Subject: [PATCH 08/11] hugetlb: Remove VMEMMAP_SYNCHRONIZE_RCU
Date: Fri,  5 Dec 2025 19:43:44 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251205194351.1646318-9-kas@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251205194351.1646318-1-kas@kernel.org>

Fake heads no longer exist, so there is no reason to synchronize them
with page_ref_add_unless().

Remove the flag and the synchronization with synchronize_rcu() that is
gated by it.
