mm: move memcmp_pages() and pages_identical()
Patch series "THP aware uprobe", v13. This patchset makes uprobe aware of THPs. Currently, when uprobe is attached to text on THP, the page is split by FOLL_SPLIT. As a result, uprobe eliminates the performance benefit of THP. This set makes uprobe THP-aware. Instead of FOLL_SPLIT, we introduces FOLL_SPLIT_PMD, which only split PMD for uprobe. After all uprobes within the THP are removed, the PTE-mapped pages are regrouped as huge PMD. This set (plus a few THP patches) is also available at https://github.com/liu-song-6/linux/tree/uprobe-thp This patch (of 6): Move memcmp_pages() to mm/util.c and pages_identical() to mm.h, so that we can use them in other files.
