Merge branch 'slab/for-6.19/memdesc_prep' into slab/for-next
Merge series "Prepare slab for memdescs" by Matthew Wilcox.
From the cover letter [1]:
When we separate struct folio, struct page and struct slab from each
other, converting to folios then to slabs will be nonsense. It made
sense under the 'folio is just a head page' interpretation, but with
full separation, page_folio() will return NULL for a page which belongs
to a slab.
This patch series removes almost all mentions of folio from slab.
There are a few folio_test_slab() invocations left around the tree that
I haven't decided how to handle yet. We're not yet quite at the point
of separately allocating struct slab, but that's what I'll be working
on next.
