[PATCH] own header file for struct page
This moves the definition of struct page from mm.h to its own header file page-struct.h. This is a prereq to fix SetPageUptodate which is broken on s390: #define SetPageUptodate(_page) do { struct page *__page = (_page); if (!test_and_set_bit(PG_uptodate, &__page->flags)) page_test_and_clear_dirty(_page); } while (0) _page gets used twice in this macro which can cause subtle bugs. Using __page for the page_test_and_clear_dirty call doesn't work since it causes yet another problem with the page_test_and_clear_dirty macro as well. In order to avoid all these problems caused by macros it seems to be a good idea to get rid of them and convert them to static inline functions. Because of header file include order it's necessary to have a seperate header file for the struct page definition.
