Patch series "mm: remove total_mapcount()", v2. Let's remove the remaining user from mm/memfd.c so we can get rid of total_mapcount(). This patch (of 2): Both functions are the remaining users of total_mapcount(). Let's get rid of the calls by converting the code to folios. As it turns out, the code is unnecessarily complicated, especially: 1) We can query the number of pagecache references for a folio simply via folio_nr_pages(). This will handle other folio sizes in the future correctly. 2) The xas_set(xas, page->index + cache_count) call to increment the iterator for large folios is not required. Remove it. Further, simplify the XA_CHECK_SCHED check, counting each entry exactly once. Memfd pages can be swapped out when using shmem; leave xa_is_value() checks in place.

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.
