SubjectRe: [PATCHv6 26/36] mm: rework mapcount accounting to enable 4k mapping of THPs

compound_mapcount() means another PageCompound() and compound_head(),
which you just did. I've tried this to see the effect on a function that
"calls" (inlines) page_mapcount() once:

- ret += compound_mapcount(page);
+ ret += atomic_read(compound_mapcount_ptr(page)) + 1;

Well, not just THP. Any user of compound pages must make sure not to use
PG_private_2 on the first tail page. At least where the page is going to
be user-mapped. And same thing about fields that are in union with
compound_mapcount. Should that be documented more prominently somewhere?
I guess there's no such user so far, right?

-nr as we discussed on IRC.
