Previously, all NR_VM_EVENT_ITEMS stats were maintained per-memcg,

14e0f6c957e39 ("memcg: reduce memory for the lruvec and memcg stats")
changed this such that we only maintain the stats we actually expose
per-memcg via a translation table.

Additionally, commit 514462bbe927b ("memcg: warn for unexpected events
and stats") added a warning if a per-memcg stat update is attempted for
a stat that is not in the translation table. The warning started firing
for the NR_{FILE/SHMEM}_PMDMAPPED stat updates in the rmap code. These
stats are not maintained per-memcg, and hence are not in the translation
table.

Do not use __lruvec_stat_mod_folio() when updating NR_FILE_PMDMAPPED and
NR_SHMEM_PMDMAPPED. Use __mod_node_page_state() instead, which updates
the global per-node stats only.

folio_pgdat(folio) should fit here easily. :)

But I would actually suggest something like the following in mm/rmap.c

I am not a big fan of this. Not because I don't like the abstraction,
but because I think it doesn't go all the way. It abstracts a very
certain case: updating nr_pmdmapped for file folios.


Right. It only removes some of the ugliness ;)

I think if we opt for abstracting the stats updates in mm/rmap.c, we
should go all the way with something like the following (probably split
as two patches: refactoring then bug fix). WDYT about the below?

I didn't suggest that, because in the _anon and _file functions we'll end up introducing unnecessary folio_test_anon() checks that the compiler cannot optimize out.

But at least in the removal path it's a clear win.
