[PATCH v5 08/28] netfs, mm: Add set/end/wait_on_page_fscache() aliases

Tue Mar 23 22:18:58 GMT 2021


Add set/end/wait_on_page_fscache() as aliases of
set/end/wait_page_private_2().  These allow a page to marked with
PG_fscache, the flag to be removed and waiters woken and waiting for the
flag to be cleared.  A ref on the page is also taken and dropped.

[Linus suggested putting the fscache-themed functions into the
 caching-specific headers rather than pagemap.h[1]]

Changes:
v5:
- Mirror the changes to the core routines[2].
