0445ee0004 mm/slab, docs: switch mm-api docs generation from slab.c to slub.c
The SLAB implementation is going to be removed, and mm-api.rst currently
uses mm/slab.c to obtain kerneldocs for some API functions. Switch it to
mm/slub.c and move the relevant kerneldocs of exported functions from
one to the other. The rest of kerneldocs in slab.c is for static SLAB
implementation-specific functions that don't have counterparts in slub.c
and thus can be simply removed with the implementation.

61ff748b5b mm: add orphaned kernel-doc to the rst files.
There are many files in mm/ that contain kernel-doc which is not
currently published on kernel.org.  Some of it is easily categorisable,
but most of it is going into the miscellaneous documentation section to
be organised later.

Some files aren't ready to be included; they contain documentation with
build errors.  Or they're nommu.c which duplicates documentation from
"real" MMU systems.  Those files are noted with a # mark (although really
anything which isn't a recognised directive would do to prevent inclusion)

def76fd549 mm/page_alloc: remove obsolete gfpflags_normal_context()
Since commit dacb5d8875 ("tcp: fix page frag corruption on page fault"),
there's no caller of gfpflags_normal_context().  Remove it as this helper
is strictly tied to the sk page frag usage and there won't be other user
in the future.

84dacdbd53 mm: document and polish read-ahead code
Add some "big-picture" documentation for read-ahead and polish the code
to make it fit this documentation.

The meaning of ->async_size is clarified to match its name.  i.e.  Any
request to ->readahead() has a sync part and an async part.  The caller
will wait for the sync pages to complete, but will not wait for the
async pages.  The first async page is still marked PG_readahead

Note that the current function names page_cache_sync_ra() and
page_cache_async_ra() are misleading.  All ra request are partly sync
and partly async, so either part can be empty.  A page_cache_sync_ra()
request will usually set ->async_size non-zero, implying it is not all
synchronous.

When a non-zero req_count is passed to page_cache_async_ra(), the
implication is that some prefix of the request is synchronous, though
the calculation made there is incorrect - I haven't tried to fix it.

2f52578f9c mm/util: Add folio_mapping() and folio_file_mapping()
These are the folio equivalent of page_mapping() and page_file_mapping().
Add an out-of-line page_mapping() wrapper around folio_mapping()
in order to prevent the page_folio() call from bloating every caller
of page_mapping().  Adjust page_file_mapping() and page_mapping_file()
to use folios internally.  Rename __page_file_mapping() to
swapcache_mapping() and change it to take a folio.

This ends up saving 122 bytes of text overall.  folio_mapping() is
45 bytes shorter than page_mapping() was, but the new page_mapping()
wrapper is 30 bytes.  The major reduction is a few bytes less in dozens
of nfs functions (which call page_file_mapping()).  Most of these appear
to be a slight change in gcc's register allocation decisions, which allow:

   48 8b 56 08         mov    0x8(%rsi),%rdx
   48 8d 42 ff         lea    -0x1(%rdx),%rax
   83 e2 01            and    $0x1,%edx
   48 0f 44 c6         cmove  %rsi,%rax

to become:

   48 8b 46 08         mov    0x8(%rsi),%rax
   48 8d 78 ff         lea    -0x1(%rax),%rdi
   a8 01               test   $0x1,%al
   48 0f 44 fe         cmove  %rsi,%rdi

for a reduction of a single byte.  Once the NFS client is converted to
use folios, this entire sequence will disappear.

Also add folio_mapping() documentation.

889a3747b3 mm/lru: Add folio LRU functions
Handle arbitrary-order folios being added to the LRU.  By definition,
all pages being added to the LRU were already head or base pages, but
call page_folio() on them anyway to get the type right and avoid the
buried calls to compound_head().

Saves 783 bytes of kernel text; no functions grow.

7b230db3b8 mm: Introduce struct folio
A struct folio is a new abstraction to replace the venerable struct page.
A function which takes a struct folio argument declares that it will
operate on the entire (possibly compound) page, not just PAGE_SIZE bytes.
In return, the caller guarantees that the pointer it is passing does
not point to a tail page.  No change to generated code.
