Subject[PATCH v3 1/4] mm/gup: add compound page list iterator
Date
Add an helper that iterates over head pages in a list of pages. It
essentially counts the tails until the next page to process has a
different head that the current. This is going to be used by
unpin_user_pages() family of functions, to batch the head page refcount
updates once for all passed consecutive tail pages.
