These really should be inline functions and probably use lower case
names.

OK.


But different question, how does this not conflict with:

#define PAGE_MAPPING_ANON       0x1

in page-flags.h?

Now we are treating dax pages, so I think its flags should be different from normal page. In another word, PAGE_MAPPING_ANON is a flag of rmap mechanism for normal page, it doesn't work for dax page. And now, we have dax rmap for dax page. So, I think this two kinds of flags are supposed to be used in different mechanisms and won't conflect.


Either way I think this flag should move to page-flags.h and be
integrated with the PAGE_MAPPING_FLAGS infrastucture.

And that's why I keep them in this dax.c file.
