Subject: [PATCH v5 04/12] mm/sparse-vmemmap: open-code init_compound_tail()
Date: Sun, 27 Sep 2026 10:54:33 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260927025441.741633-5-songmuchun@bytedance.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260927025441.741633-1-songmuchun@bytedance.com>

init_compound_tail() is only used by vmemmap_shared_tail_page(), where
the shared tail page setup intentionally passes NULL as the compound head.

Keeping this helper in mm/internal.h exposes that special case to the rest
of the MM code and can make the NULL head argument look generally valid.
Open-code the initialization at the only call site so the special-case use
stays local to sparse vmemmap optimization.

No functional change intended.
