commit b7b098cf00a2b65d5654a86dc8edf82f125289c1 upstream. Patch series "Various significant MM patches". These patches all interact in annoying ways which make it tricky to send them out in any way other than a big batch, even though there's not really an overarching theme to connect them. The big effects of this patch series are: - folio_test_hugetlb() becomes reliable, even when called without a page reference - We free up PG_slab, and we could always use more page flags - We no longer need to check PageSlab before calling page_mapcount() This patch (of 9): For compound pages which are at least order-2 (and hence have a deferred_list), initialise it and then we can check at free that the page is not part of a deferred list. We recently found this useful to rule out a source of corruption.

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.
