Subject[RFC v4][PATCH part-2 02/13] mm/dpt: Track buffers allocated for a decorated page-table
Date
Add functions to track buffers allocated for a decorated page-table.
A page-table can have direct references to the kernel page table, at
different levels (PGD, P4D, PUD, PMD). When freeing a page-table, we
should make sure that we free parts actually allocated for the decorated
page-table, and not parts of the kernel page table referenced from the
page-table. To do so, we will keep track of buffers when building the
page-table.
