Subject: [PATCH 12/25] mm/fbatch: remove percpu_pvec_drained and folios_put()
Date: Mon, 24 Aug 2026 07:20:44 -0700 (PDT) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <3599e5ac-b74f-87ad-ab65-78d24c148fd1@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <14a16945-529b-8bc0-ab38-3ea97e54e223@google.com>
Remove the percpu_pvec_drained field from folio_batch, and its only use
in __folio_batch_release(): remove that now pointless lru_add_drain().
Which leaves __folio_batch_release() as an exported name for folios_put()
which is itself just a wrapper for folios_put_refs(): mm/mlock.c and
mm/folio.c don't need such a wrapper, just say folios_put_refs(,NULL).
Or should folios_put() be the export? But __folio_batch_release() is what
drivers/gpu and net/sunrpc are using: don't change them in this series.
