Subject: [PATCH 03/11] mm/sparse-vmemmap: open-code init_compound_tail()
Date: Mon, 31 Aug 2026 15:53:34 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260831075342.57563-4-songmuchun@bytedance.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260831075342.57563-1-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.
