Subject: [PATCH] mm/z3fold.c: Reinitialize zhdr structs after migration

z3fold_page_migration() calls memcpy(new_zhdr, zhdr, PAGE_SIZE).
However, zhdr contains fields that can't be directly coppied over (ex:
list_head, a circular linked list). We only need to initialize the
linked lists in new_zhdr, as z3fold_isolate_page() already ensures
that these lists are empty.

Additionally it is possible that zhdr->work has been placed in a
workqueue. In this case we shouldn't migrate the page, as zhdr->work
references zhdr as opposed to new_zhdr.

Ok, I see it happens in the call to do_compact_page(). Got it, new
patch coming out now.

Sorry Vitaly, I had the wrong impression from your email that
INIT_LIST_HEAD() was being ensured directly in migrate and got
confused. (I thought you were saying it happened through the call to
do_compact_page() queued).

That being said, I don't see where in migrate new_zhdr->buddy is being
checked. We do check for new_zhdr.work with
if (work_pending(&zhdr->work)) {
...
}

Is that what you were referring to?
