- * compound_trans_head() should be used instead of compound_head(),
- * whenever the "page" passed as parameter could be the tail of a
- * transparent hugepage that could be undergoing a
- * __split_huge_page_refcount(). The page structure layout often
- * changes across releases and it makes extensive use of unions. So if
- * the page structure layout will change in a way that
- * page->first_page gets clobbered by __split_huge_page_refcount, the
- * implementation making use of smp_rmb() will be required.
- *
- * Currently we define compound_trans_head as compound_head, because
- * page->private is in the same union with page->first_page, and
- * page->private isn't clobbered. However this also means we're
- * currently leaving dirt into the page->private field of anonymous
- * pages resulting from a THP split, instead of setting page->private
- * to zero like for every other page that has PG_private not set. But
- * anonymous pages don't use page->private so this is not a problem.
