Subject[PATCH 2/2] mm: Indicate pfmemalloc pages in compound_head
Date
The net page_pool wants to use a magic value to identify page pool pages.
The best place to put it is in the first word where it can be clearly a
non-pointer value. That means shifting dma_addr up to alias with ->index,
which means we need to find another way to indicate page_is_pfmemalloc().
Since page_pool doesn't want to set its magic value on pages which are
pfmemalloc, we can use bit 1 of compound_head to indicate that the page
came from the memory reserves.
