ReactOS Portable Systems Group 93c66fb50d One would expect that a function called "MmIsUsablePage" would return whether a not a page is usable. In other words, we are making sure that the page is free/available, so that we may make use of it. Apparently not so -- MmIsUsable page returned if a page was NOT usable, but was instead "already used". The caller's wish was to ensure he was correctly using a used page, not to check if he could start using a usable page. This would just be an annoying gramatical/logic error (but makes "sense" in the way it's used), if it weren't for the fact that MmIsUsablePage also returned TRUE for BIOS pages (which meant, "yes, you are correctly using/overwriting memory we spent time ensuring to mark as reserved/BIOS"). ... Renamed the function to MmIsPageInUse, and only return TRUE if the page is in use. Like the name says. svn path=/trunk/; revision=32364		2008-02-14 20:30:31 +00:00
