[PATCH 0/7] Cleanup free_pages() misuse

["Vishal Moola (Oracle)" <vishal.moola@gmail.com>]

free_pages() is supposed to be called when we only have a virtual address.
__free_pages() is supposed to be called when we have a page.

There are a number of callers that use page_address() to get a page's
virtual address then call free_pages() on it when they should just call
__free_pages() directly.

Add kernel-docs for free_pages() to help callers better understand which
function they should be calling, and replace the obvious cases of
misuse.

-----------------
Based on mm-new. I intend to have all of these taken through the mm tree.

I've split the patches into separate subsystems to make it easier to
resolve conflicts, but there aren't any functional changes.

Vishal Moola (Oracle) (7):
  mm/page_alloc: Add kernel-docs for free_pages()
  aoe: Stop calling page_address() in free_page()
  x86: Stop calling page_address() in free_pages()
  riscv: Stop calling page_address() in free_pages()
  powerpc: Stop calling page_address() in free_pages()
  arm64: Stop calling page_address() in free_pages()
  virtio_balloon: Stop calling page_address() in free_pages()
