Subject: mm: open-code page_folio() in dump_page()
Date: Mon, 25 Nov 2024 20:17:19 +0000

page_folio() calls page_fixed_fake_head() which will misidentify this page
as being a fake head and load off the end of 'precise'.  We may have a
pointer to a fake head, but that's OK because it contains the right
information for dump_page().

gcc-15 is smart enough to catch this with -Warray-bounds:

In function 'page_fixed_fake_head',
    inlined from '_compound_head' at ../include/linux/page-flags.h:251:24,
    inlined from '__dump_page' at ../mm/debug.c:123:11:
../include/asm-generic/rwonce.h:44:26: warning: array subscript 9 is outside
+array bounds of 'struct page[1]' [-Warray-bounds=]
