[PATCH v1] mm/memory: fix folio_set_dirty() vs. folio_mark_dirty() in zap_pte_range()

From: David Hildenbrand
Date: Mon Jan 22 2024 - 12:51:07 EST


The correct folio replacement for "set_page_dirty()" is
"folio_mark_dirty()", not "folio_set_dirty()". Using the latter won't
properly inform the FS using the dirty_folio() callback.

This has been found by code inspection, but likely this can result in
some real trouble when zapping dirty PTEs that point at clean pagecache
folios.
