    page-flags: define PG_locked behavior on compound pages · 48c935ad
    Kirill A. Shutemov authored
    lock_page() must operate on the whole compound page.  It doesn't make
    much sense to lock part of compound page.  Change code to use head
    page's PG_locked, if tail page is passed.
    
    This patch also gets rid of custom helper functions --
    __set_page_locked() and __clear_page_locked().  They are replaced with
    helpers generated by __SETPAGEFLAG/__CLEARPAGEFLAG.  Tail pages to these
    helper would trigger VM_BUG_ON().
    
    SLUB uses PG_locked as a bit spin locked.  IIUC, tail pages should never
    appear there.  VM_BUG_ON() is added to make sure that this assumption is
    correct.
