Hi Usama,
Do we need this? When can a partially_mapped folio on deferred_list become
non-partially-mapped and need a clear? I understand transferring from
entirely_map
to partially_mapped is a one way process? partially_mapped folios can't go back
to entirely_mapped?
I am trying to rebase my NR_SPLIT_DEFERRED counter on top of your
work, but this "clear" makes that job quite tricky. as I am not sure
if this patch
is going to clear the partially_mapped flag for folios on deferred_list.
Otherwise, I can simply do the below whenever folio is leaving deferred_list
ds_queue->split_queue_len--;
list_del_init(&folio->_deferred_list);
if (folio_test_clear_partially_mapped(folio))
mod_mthp_stat(folio_order(folio),
MTHP_STAT_NR_SPLIT_DEFERRED, -1);
