Hi Johannes,

Thanks for comments!

Right, Consider functions in this file are using head/tail more as parameters
I will change to use head/tail too. And then, the 04th, 05th, and 18th patch 
will be changed accordingly.

Thanks
Alex

Subject: [PATCH v21 04/20] mm/thp: use head for head page in lru_add_page_tail

Since the first parameter is only used by head page, it's better to make
it explicit.
