[PATCH v1] mm: remove total_mapcount()

From: David Hildenbrand
Date: Thu Feb 22 2024 - 11:10:37 EST


mm/memfd.c is that last remaining user of total_mapcount(). Let's
convert memfd_tag_pins() and memfd_wait_for_pins() to use folios
instead of pages, so we can remove total_mapcount() for good.

We always get a head page, so we can just naturally interpret is as a folio
(similar to other code).

Did a quick test with write-sealing a memfd backed by THP. Seems to work
as it used to.
