In the coming subpage RW supports, there are a lot of page status update calls which need to be converted to subpage compatible version, which needs @start and @len. Some call sites already have such @start/@len and are already in page range, like various endio functions. But there are also call sites which need to clamp the range for subpage case, like btrfs_dirty_pagse() and __process_contig_pages(). Here we introduce new helpers, btrfs_page_clamp_*(), to do and only do the clamp for subpage version. Although in theory all existing btrfs_page_*() calls can be converted to use btrfs_page_clamp_*() directly, but that would make us to do unnecessary clamp operations.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
