vfree calls __free_pages, the i915 and a lot of other code calls
put_page. They are mostly the same, but not quite and everytime I
look into that mess I'm more confused than before.
Can someone in the know write sensible documentation on when to use
__free_page(s) vs put_page?

vfree calls __free_pages, the i915 and a lot of other code calls
put_page. They are mostly the same, but not quite and everytime I
look into that mess I'm more confused than before.
