From: Yang Shi <shy828301@xxxxxxxxx> Currently try_to_unmap() return bool value by checking page_mapcount(), however this may return false positive since page_mapcount() doesn't check all subpages of compound page. The total_mapcount() could be used instead, but its cost is higher since it traverses all subpages. Actually the most callers of try_to_unmap() don't care about the return value at all. So just need check if page is still mapped by page_mapped() when necessary. And page_mapped() does bail out early when it finds mapped subpage.
