+/* Mapfree infrastructure.
+ *
+ * Purposes:
+ *
+ * 1) Open files only once when possible, do ref-counting on struct
mapfree_info
+ *
+ * 2) Automatically call invalidate_mapping_pages() in the background on
+ * "unused" areas to free resources.
+ * Used areas can be indicated by calling mapfree_set() frequently.
+ * Usage model: tailored to sequential logfiles.
+ *
+ * 3) Do it all in a completely decoupled manner, in order to prevent resource
deadlocks.
+ *
+ * 4) Also to prevent deadlocks: always set mapping_set_gfp_mask() accordingly.
