Subject: [PATCH 2/5] ksm: support unsharing zero pages placed by KSM
From: xu xin <xu.xin16@....com.cn>
After the commit e86c59b1b12d ("mm/ksm: improve deduplication of zero
pages with colouring"), madvise(addr, len, MADV_UNMERGEABLE) and other
ways (like write 2 to /sys/kernel/mm/ksm/run) to trigger unsharing will
**not** unshare the shared zeropage as placed by KSM (which is against
the MADV_UNMERGEABLE documentation at least).
To not blindly unshare all shared zero_pages in applicable VMAs, the patch
introduces a dedicated flag ZERO_PAGE_FLAG to mark the rmap_items of those
shared zero_pages. and guarantee that these rmap_items will be not freed
during the time of zero_pages not being writing, so we can only unshare
the *KSM-placed* zero_pages.
The patch will not degrade the performance of use_zero_pages as it doesn't
change the way of merging empty pages in use_zero_pages's feature.
Fixes: e86c59b1b12d ("mm/ksm: improve deduplication of zero pages with colouring")
