Subject: [PATCH v4 00/16] Overhaul multi-page lookups for THP

This THP prep patchset changes several page cache iteration APIs to only
return head pages.

 - It's only possible to tag head pages in the page cache, so only
   return head pages, not all their subpages.
 - Factor a lot of common code out of the various batch lookup routines
 - Add mapping_seek_hole_data()
 - Unify find_get_entries() and pagevec_lookup_entries()
 - Make find_get_entries only return head pages, like find_get_entry().

These are only loosely connected, but they seem to make sense together
as a series.

v4:
 - Add FGP_ENTRY, remove find_get_entry and find_lock_entry
 - Rename xas_find_get_entry to find_get_entry
 - Add "Optimise get_shadow_from_swap_cache"
 - Move "iomap: Use mapping_seek_hole_data" to this patch series
 - Rebase against next-20201112

Matthew Wilcox (Oracle) (16):
  mm: Make pagecache tagged lookups return only head pages
  mm/shmem: Use pagevec_lookup in shmem_unlock_mapping
  mm/swap: Optimise get_shadow_from_swap_cache
  mm: Add FGP_ENTRY
  mm/filemap: Rename find_get_entry to mapping_get_entry
  mm/filemap: Add helper for finding pages
  mm/filemap: Add mapping_seek_hole_data
  iomap: Use mapping_seek_hole_data
  mm: Add and use find_lock_entries
  mm: Add an 'end' parameter to find_get_entries
  mm: Add an 'end' parameter to pagevec_lookup_entries
  mm: Remove nr_entries parameter from pagevec_lookup_entries
  mm: Pass pvec directly to find_get_entries
  mm: Remove pagevec_lookup_entries
  mm/truncate,shmem: Handle truncates that split THPs
  mm/filemap: Return only head pages from find_get_entries
