Subject: [PATCH RFC 09/17] userfaultfd: introduce vm_uffd_ops->alloc_folio()
From: "Mike Rapoport (Microsoft)" <rppt@...nel.org>
and use it to refactor mfill_atomic_pte_zeroed_folio() and
mfill_atomic_pte_copy().
mfill_atomic_pte_zeroed_folio() and mfill_atomic_pte_copy() perform
almost identical actions:
* allocate a folio
* update folio contents (either copy from userspace of fill with zeros)
* update page tables with the new folio
Split a __mfill_atomic_pte() helper that handles both cases and uses
newly introduced vm_uffd_ops->alloc_folio() to allocate the folio.
Pass the ops structure from the callers to __mfill_atomic_pte() to later
allow using anon_uffd_ops for MAP_PRIVATE mappings of file-backed VMAs.
Note, that the new ops method is called alloc_folio() rather than
folio_alloc() to avoid clash with alloc_tag macro folio_alloc().
