Patch series "selftests/mm: split_huge_page_test: split_pte_mapped_thp improvements", v2. One fix for occasional failures I found while testing and a bunch of cleanups that should make that test easier to digest. This patch (of 2): When checking for actual tail or head pages of a folio, we must make sure that the KPF_COMPOUND_HEAD/KPF_COMPOUND_TAIL flag is paired with KPF_THP. For example, if we have another large folio after our large folio in physical memory, our "pfn_flags & (KPF_THP | KPF_COMPOUND_TAIL)" would trigger even though it's actually a head page of the next folio. If is_backed_by_folio() returns a wrong result, split_pte_mapped_thp() can fail with "Some THPs are missing during mremap". Fix it by checking for head/tail pages of folios properly. Add folio_tail_flags/folio_head_flags to improve readability and use these masks also when just testing for any compound page.

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 reStructuredText 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.
