Subject: mm: introduce vma_pgtable_walk_{begin|end}()
Date: Thu, 21 Mar 2024 18:07:54 -0400
Introduce per-vma begin()/end() helpers for pgtable walks. This is a
preparation work to merge hugetlb pgtable walkers with generic mm.
The helpers need to be called before and after a pgtable walk, will start
to be needed if the pgtable walker code supports hugetlb pages. It's a
hook point for any type of VMA, but for now only hugetlb uses it to
stablize the pgtable pages from getting away (due to possible pmd
unsharing).
