I see what you mean: page_mapcount(page) sums up both the page's and the
head page's mapcount in some cases. The function doesn't seem to work
correctly unless it is fed the tail page.
Here, even though the "head" variable's meaning is overloaded (=="head page,
unless the tail page was corrupted, in which case, tail page"), it would still be
accurate to change that line back to the original line, so that it once again
reads:
mapcount = PageSlab(page) ? 0 : page_mapcount(page);
Matthew?
(Also, I see that __page_mapcount is EXPORT-ed, which is odd: nothing uses it
other than page_mapcount. Micro-housecleaning time maybe...)
