Gavin Shan 979f3ef0f7 mm: fix parameter passed to page_mapcount_is_type() 
Patch series "Fix parameter passed to page_mapcount_is_type()", v2.

Found by code inspection.  There are two places where the parameter passed
to page_mapcount_is_type() is (page->_mapcount), which is incorrect since
it should be one more than the value, as explained in the comments to
page_mapcount_is_type(): (a) page_has_type() in page-flags.h (b)
__dump_folio() in mm/debug.c

PATCH[1] fixes the parameter for (a)
PATCH[2] fixes the parameter for (b)

Note that the issue doesn't cause any visible impacts due to the safety
gap introduced by PGTY_mapcount_underflow limit.  So the tag 'Cc:
stable@vger.kernel.org' isn't needed.


This patch (of 2):

As the comments of page_mapcount_is_type() indicate, the parameter passed
to the function should be one more than page->_mapcount.  However,
page->_mapcount (equivalent to page->page_type) is passed to the function
by commit 4ffca5a966 ("mm: support only one page_type per page")
page_type_has_type() is replaced by page_mapcount_is_type(), but the
parameter isn't adjusted.

Fix it by replacing page_mapcount_is_type() with page_type_has_type() in
page_has_type().  Note that the issue doesn't cause any visible impacts
due to the safety gap introduced by PGTY_mapcount_underflow limit.

README 

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 reStructuredText 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.
