[PATCH 07/12] mm: Remove redundant pXd_devmap calls

Alistair Popple
2025-05-29T06:33:00Z

DAX was the only thing that created pmd_devmap and pud_devmap entries
however it no longer does as DAX pages are now refcounted normally and
pXd_trans_huge() returns true for those. Therefore checking both pXd_devmap
and pXd_trans_huge() is redundant and the former can be removed without
changing behaviour as it will always be false.
