mm: Add set/end/wait functions for PG_private_2
Add three functions to manipulate PG_private_2: (*) set_page_private_2() - Set the flag and take an appropriate reference on the flagged page. (*) end_page_private_2() - Clear the flag, drop the reference and wake up any waiters, somewhat analogously with end_page_writeback(). (*) wait_on_page_private_2() - Wait for the flag to be cleared. Wrappers will need to be placed in the netfs lib header in the patch that adds that. [This implements a suggestion by Linus[1] to not mix the terminology of PG_private_2 and PG_fscache in the mm core function] Changes: v7: - Use compound_head() in all the functions to make them THP safe[6]. v5: - Add set and end functions, calling the end function end rather than unlock[3]. - Keep a ref on the page when PG_private_2 is set[4][5]. v4: - Remove extern from the declaration[2].
