David Hildenbrand fb3d824d1a mm/rmap: split page_dup_rmap() into page_dup_file_rmap() and page_try_dup_anon_rmap()
...  and move the special check for pinned pages into
page_try_dup_anon_rmap() to prepare for tracking exclusive anonymous pages
via a new pageflag, clearing it only after making sure that there are no
GUP pins on the anonymous page.

We really only care about pins on anonymous pages, because they are prone
to getting replaced in the COW handler once mapped R/O.  For !anon pages
in cow-mappings (!VM_SHARED && VM_MAYWRITE) we shouldn't really care about
that, at least not that I could come up with an example.

Let's drop the is_cow_mapping() check from page_needs_cow_for_dma(), as we
know we're dealing with anonymous pages.  Also, drop the handling of
pinned pages from copy_huge_pud() and add a comment if ever supporting
anonymous pages on the PUD level.

This is a preparation for tracking exclusivity of anonymous pages in the
rmap code, and disallowing marking a page shared (-> failing to duplicate)
if there are GUP pins on a page.

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.
