The intent is to add folio_mk_pte() to remove the conversion from folio to page necessary to call mk_pte(). Eventually we might end up removing mk_pte(), but that's not what's being proposed today. I didn't want to add folio_mk_pte() to each architecture, and I didn't want to lose any optimisations that architectures have from their own implementation of mk_pte(). Fortunately, most architectures have by now turned their mk_pte() into a fairly bland variant of pfn_pte(), but s390 is different. So patch 1 hoists the optimisation of calling pte_mkdirty() from s390 to generic code. I'd appreciate some eyes on this from mm people who understand this better than I do. I originally had - if (write) + if (write || folio_test_dirty(folio)) entry = maybe_mkwrite(pte_mkdirty(entry), vma); and I think that broke COW under some circumstances that 01.org could reproduce and I couldn't. The various architecture maintainers might care to make sure that what I've done is an equivalent transformation. x86 was particularly tricky. The build bots say it works ... at least now I've dealt with the pesky !MMU problem. The last patch to actually use folio_mk_pte() ought to be the least likely to have a problem since it's equivalent to calling mk_pte(&folio->page).
