Can you fix the comment above the RMAP_xyz definitions? That one still says
/* bitflags for do_page_add_anon_rmap() */
that tnow no longer exists.
Also, while this kind of code isn't unusual, I think it's still confusing:
> + page_add_anon_rmap(page, vma, addr, 0);
because when reading that, at least I go "what does 0 mean? Is it a
page offset, or what?"
It might be a good idea to simply add a
#define RMAP_PAGE 0x00
or something like that, just to have the callers all make it obvious
that we're talking about that RMAP_xyz bits - even if some of them may
be default.
(Then using an enum of a special type is something we do if we want to
add extra clarity or sparse testing, I don't think there are enough
users for that to make sense)
