/**
+ * kmap_local_folio - Map a page in this folio for temporary usage
+ * @folio: The folio containing the page.
+ * @offset: The byte offset within the folio which identifies the page.
+ *
+ * Requires careful handling when nesting multiple mappings because the map
+ * management is stack based. The unmap has to be in the reverse order of
+ * the map operation::
+ *
+ * addr1 = kmap_local_folio(folio1, offset1);
+ * addr2 = kmap_local_folio(folio2, offset2);
+ * ...
+ * kunmap_local(addr2);
+ * kunmap_local(addr1);
+ *
+ * Unmapping addr1 before addr2 is invalid and causes malfunction.
+ *
+ * Contrary to kmap() mappings the mapping is only valid in the context of
+ * the caller and cannot be handed to other contexts.
+ *
+ * On CONFIG_HIGHMEM=n kernels and for low memory pages this returns the
+ * virtual address of the direct mapping. Only real highmem pages are
+ * temporarily mapped.
+ *
+ * While it is significantly faster than kmap() for the higmem case it
+ * comes with restrictions about the pointer validity. Only use when really
+ * necessary.
+ *
+ * On HIGHMEM enabled systems mapping a highmem page has the side effect of
+ * disabling migration in order to keep the virtual address stable across
+ * preemption. No caller of kmap_local_folio() can rely on this side effect.
+ *
+ * Context: Can be invoked from any context.
+ * Return: The virtual address of @offset.
