commit 39f985c8f667c80a3d1eb19d31138032fa36b09e upstream. Cachefiles was relying on wait_page_key and wait_bit_key being the same layout, which is fragile. Now that wait_page_key is exposed in the pagemap.h header, we can remove that fragility A comment on the need to maintain structure layout equivalence was added by Linus[1] and that is no longer applicable.

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.
