The documentation currently does not include the deathless prose written to describe functions in pagemap.h because it's not included in any rst file. Fix up the mismatches between parameter names and the documentation and add the file to mm-api.

Memory Allocation Controls
|
|
==========================
|
|
|
|
Functions which need to allocate memory often use GFP flags to express
|
|
how that memory should be allocated. The GFP acronym stands for "get
|
|
free pages", the underlying memory allocation function. Not every GFP
|
|
flag is allowed to every function which may allocate memory. Most
|
|
users will want to use a plain ``GFP_KERNEL``.
