[PATCH 2/5] mm: do_wp_page() simplification

From: Suren Baghdasaryan
Date: Thu Apr 01 2021 - 15:21:32 EST


From: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

How about we just make sure we're the only possible valid user fo the
page before we bother to reuse it?

Simplify, simplify, simplify.

And get rid of the nasty serialization on the page lock at the same time.
