See commit b6999b191 which did the same modification for x86's mm/gup,

Quote from commit b6999b191:
    "If compound pages are used and the page is a
    tail page, gup_huge_pmd() increases _mapcount to record tail page are
    mapped while gup_huge_pud does not do that."

[ralf@linux-mips.org: fixed rejects caused by the original patch getting
linewrapped.]

A number of new instructions have been added to the micro assembler causing
the list to no longer be in alphabetical order. This patch fixes up the name
ordering.

Remove usage of the '__attribute__((alias("...")))' hack that aliased
to integer arrays containing micro-assembled instructions. This hack
breaks when building a microMIPS kernel. It also makes the code much
easier to understand.

[ralf@linux-mips.org: Added back export of the clear_page and copy_page
symbols so certain modules will work again.  Also fixed build with
CONFIG_SIBYTE_DMA_PAGEOPS enabled.]

Pull DMA mapping branch from Marek Szyprowski:
 "Short summary for the whole series:

  A few limitations have been identified in the current dma-mapping
  design and its implementations for various architectures.  There exist
  more than one function for allocating and freeing the buffers:
  currently these 3 are used dma_{alloc, free}_coherent,
  dma_{alloc,free}_writecombine, dma_{alloc,free}_noncoherent.

  For most of the systems these calls are almost equivalent and can be
  interchanged.  For others, especially the truly non-coherent ones
  (like ARM), the difference can be easily noticed in overall driver
  performance.  Sadly not all architectures provide implementations for
  all of them, so the drivers might need to be adapted and cannot be
  easily shared between different architectures.  The provided patches
  unify all these functions and hide the differences under the already
  existing dma attributes concept.  The thread with more references is
  available here:

    http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-sh/msg09777.html

  These patches are also a prerequisite for unifying DMA-mapping
  implementation on ARM architecture with the common one provided by
  dma_map_ops structure and extending it with IOMMU support.  More
  information is available in the following thread:

    http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.cross-arch/12819

  More works on dma-mapping framework are planned, especially in the
  area of buffer sharing and managing the shared mappings (together with
  the recently introduced dma_buf interface: commit d15bd7ee445d
  "dma-buf: Introduce dma buffer sharing mechanism").

  The patches in the current set introduce a new alloc/free methods
  (with support for memory attributes) in dma_map_ops structure, which
  will later replace dma_alloc_coherent and dma_alloc_writecombine
  functions."

People finally started piping up with support for merging this, so I'm
merging it as the last of the pending stuff from the merge window.
Looks like pohmelfs is going to wait for 3.5 and more external support
for merging.

* 'for-linus' of git://git.linaro.org/people/mszyprowski/linux-dma-mapping:
  common: DMA-mapping: add NON-CONSISTENT attribute
  common: DMA-mapping: add WRITE_COMBINE attribute
