Kirill A. Shutemov 9445689f3b khugepaged: allow to collapse a page shared across fork
The page can be included into collapse as long as it doesn't have extra
pins (from GUP or otherwise).

Logic to check the refcount is moved to a separate function.  For pages in
swap cache, add compound_nr(page) to the expected refcount, in order to
handle the compound page case.  This is in preparation for the following
patch.

VM_BUG_ON_PAGE() was removed from __collapse_huge_page_copy() as the
invariant it checks is no longer valid: the source can be mapped multiple
times now.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
