Subject: [PATCH v11 1/7] mm: move clearing the dropbehind flag of a found folio into a helper
Date: Tue, 10 Nov 2026 20:56:01 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261111015607.46338-2-snitzer@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261111015607.46338-1-snitzer@kernel.org>
Move the code in __filemap_get_folio_mpol() that clears PG_dropbehind
on a folio found by a cached lookup, and takes the folio off
WB_DONTCACHE_DIRTY, into filemap_clear_dropbehind(). No functional
change. The next patch changes the helper.
