If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: David Hildenbrand (Arm) commit 078e1a0fc41a42baaf113383b52dab8874c0b967 upstream. folio_may_be_lru_cached() is currently only true for small folios, and for small folios FOLL_PIN adds GUP_PIN_COUNTING_BIAS references instead of 1 in try_grab_folio()/try_grab_folio_fast(). Consequently, our folio_ref_count(folio) != folio_expected_ref_count(folio) + 1 check in collect_longterm_unpinnable_folios() will currently always identify "reference mismatch" and first drain the local LRU cache to then drain the LRU cache on all CPUs, as collect_longterm_unpinnable_folios() is really called after pinning the folios with FOLL_PIN. Add a comment because the current code is not quite intuitive: we used to drain only to make sure the folio_isolate_lru() would succeed. But then we also started draining to make later migration more reliable. We'll refactor that code soon a bit, to also make it usable in other context where we really want to remove any references from LRU caches. Let's add CC stable, because having an easy way for excessive LRU cache draining on all CPUs does not sound right. In common scenarios we don't expect to ever have to drain.
