[PATCH 15/16] page-flags: look at head page if the flag is encoded in page->mapping

Show all headers | View raw

PageAnon() and PageKsm() look at lower bits of page->mapping to check if
the page is Anon or KSM.  page->mapping can be overloaded in tail pages.

Let's always look at head page to avoid false-positives.
