[RFC v2 3/4] mm: add largest_zero_folio() routine
From: Pankaj Raghav (Samsung)
Date: Thu Jul 24 2025 - 10:54:00 EST
From: Pankaj Raghav <p.raghav@xxxxxxxxxxx>
Add largest_zero_folio() routine so that huge_zero_folio can be
used directly when CONFIG_STATIC_HUGE_ZERO_FOLIO is enabled. This will
return ZERO_PAGE folio if CONFIG_STATIC_HUGE_ZERO_FOLIO is disabled or
if we failed to allocate a huge_zero_folio.
