Hugh Dickins f3cd4ab0aa mm/madvise: clean up pte_offset_map_lock() scans
Came here to make madvise's several pte_offset_map_lock() scans advance to
next extent on failure, and remove superfluous pmd_trans_unstable() and
pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad() calls.  But also did some nearby
cleanup.

swapin_walk_pmd_entry(): don't name an address "index"; don't drop the
lock after every pte, only when calling out to read_swap_cache_async().

madvise_cold_or_pageout_pte_range() and madvise_free_pte_range(): prefer
"start_pte" for pointer, orig_pte usually denotes a saved pte value; leave
lazy MMU mode before unlocking; merge the success and failure paths after
split_folio().

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.
