David Howells 73e10ded33 mm: Add set/end/wait functions for PG_private_2
Add three functions to manipulate PG_private_2:

 (*) set_page_private_2() - Set the flag and take an appropriate reference
     on the flagged page.

 (*) end_page_private_2() - Clear the flag, drop the reference and wake up
     any waiters, somewhat analogously with end_page_writeback().

 (*) wait_on_page_private_2() - Wait for the flag to be cleared.

Wrappers will need to be placed in the netfs lib header in the patch that
adds that.

[This implements a suggestion by Linus[1] to not mix the terminology of
 PG_private_2 and PG_fscache in the mm core function]

Changes:
v7:
- Use compound_head() in all the functions to make them THP safe[6].

v5:
- Add set and end functions, calling the end function end rather than
  unlock[3].
- Keep a ref on the page when PG_private_2 is set[4][5].

v4:
- Remove extern from the declaration[2].

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
