Filesystem folios _ought_to have folio->private as NULL when PG_private
is unset and PG_private set when folio->private is non-NULL. Now, ceph
could be doing something Bad (I believe hugetlbfs does not honour this
for various reasons), but it looks like it's using
folio_attach_private() / folio_detach_private() appropriately.
So I think we should just do:
static inline
struct ceph_snap_context *ceph_folio_snap_context(const struct folio *folio)
{
return folio->private;
}
(folio->private is already void *, so it doesn't need to be cast).
Splitting the definition where I did puts the unimmportant information
(static inline) on the previous line, so somebody grepping for
ceph_folio_snap_context gets the return type, while not breaking 80
columns.
