Subject: mm/huge_memory: move EOF trimming into the file split helper
Date: Tue, 15 Sep 2026 01:14:48 +0800
Instead of receiving @end and @nr_shmem_dropped from the caller, the file
split helper now computes the EOF boundary and trims pages beyond it
itself, as this is only needed for file split. This drops the redundant
parameter passing and sanity check.
