Subject: [PATCH v3 1/2] kho: Introduce a helper to init high order pages
Date: Thu, 23 Jul 2026 20:42:01 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260723204203.2997395-2-praan@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260723204203.2997395-1-praan@google.com>

The current KHO restoration logic assumes all multi-page blocks are
split into independent 4KB pages. Break out a helper to prepare for
supporting high-order non-compound pages.

Extract kho_init_high_order_page() to handle the refcount pattern
where only the head page is refcounted. Use the helper for folio
restoration that requires a similar refcount logic.
