Oooh.  I was based on linux-next, and Linus asked me to stop doing that.
So I rebased on -rc4 (ish), but I inadvertently brought back some of the
changes which are currently in mmotm.  This one is from:

    mm: hugetlb: alloc the vmemmap pages associated with each HugeTLB page

which contains:

-       set_page_private(page, 0);
+
+       /* page->private contains hugetlb specific flags */
+       if (!PageHuge(page))
+               set_page_private(page, 0);

So, good catch, glad you're reviewing it so closely.  I'll fix this up
as part of rebasing this patch set on top of 14-rc1.  Obviously this
second patch set isn't for merging during this merge window, but I do
hope it can go into 5.15's merge window.

The only API change I intentionally brought back was:

    mm: memcontrol: remove the pgdata parameter of mem_cgroup_page_lruvec

You'll notice that my patches have:

+static inline struct lruvec *mem_cgroup_folio_lruvec(struct folio *folio)
+{
+       return mem_cgroup_page_lruvec(&folio->page, folio_pgdat(folio));
+}

where mmotm has:

-static inline struct lruvec *mem_cgroup_page_lruvec(struct page *page,
-                                               struct pglist_data *pgdat)
+static inline struct lruvec *mem_cgroup_page_lruvec(struct page *page)
 {
+       pg_data_t *pgdat = page_pgdat(page);


Probably I should have cherry-picked those prereq patches into my tree
to ease the rebasing (like I did our changes to set_page_dirty), but
I'm not 100% confident I'll get all their prereq patches.
