Shutemov" <kirill.shutemov@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: page-flags: look at head page if the flag is encoded in page->mapping PageAnon() and PageKsm() look at lower bits of page->mapping to check if the page is Anon or KSM. page->mapping can be overloaded in tail pages. Let's always look at head page to avoid false-positives. Signed-off-by: Kirill A.
