Yeah, sorry. It's a "gather what's presently there" thing. For writeback.
Nick has some gang-lookup-slots code. So instead of populating an array of
page*'s you can populate an array of (effectively) page**'s. Then one
could walk that. All while holding ->tree_lock. This doesn't help ;)
Actually while we're on the subject, my gang_lookup_slot code is just
named to match lookup_slot and gang_lookup... it still only returns
slots that are presently populated. Suggestions for a better name
welcome?
Probably the simplest for now is an open-coded find_get_page() loop. Later
Agreed. I think that's the best idea for now.
