[PATCH v3 5/7] mm: thp: split huge page to any lower order pages.

Zi Yan
2023-04-03T20:19:15Z

From: Zi Yan <ziy@nvidia.com>

To split a THP to any lower order pages, we need to reform THPs on
subpages at given order and add page refcount based on the new page
order. Also we need to reinitialize page_deferred_list after removing
the page from the split_queue, otherwise a subsequent split will see
list corruption when checking the page_deferred_list again.

It has many uses, like minimizing the number of pages after
truncating a huge pagecache page. For anonymous THPs, we can only split
them to order-0 like before until we add support for any size anonymous
THPs.
