From: Zi Yan <ziy@xxxxxxxxxx> On SPARSEMEM without VMEMMAP, struct page is not guaranteed to be contiguous, since each memory section's memmap might be allocated independently. hugetlb pages can go beyond a memory section size, thus direct struct page manipulation on hugetlb pages/subpages might give wrong struct page. Kernel provides nth_page() to do the manipulation properly. Use that whenever code can see hugetlb pages.
How can we notice "whenever code can see hugetlb pages"? From your series it seems you did a manual code audit, is that correct? (I ask because I'm wondering about code scalability and catching other cases). Thanks, Phil.
