From d50569612c29215c5d1c64f47a65604ed265d2e9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Kiryl Shutsemau Date: Fri, 27 Feb 2026 19:42:41 +0000 Subject: mm: rename the 'compound_head' field in the 'struct page' to 'compound_info' The 'compound_head' field in the 'struct page' encodes whether the page is a tail and where to locate the head page. Bit 0 is set if the page is a tail, and the remaining bits in the field point to the head page. As preparation for changing how the field encodes information about the head page, rename the field to 'compound_info'.
