That part actually exists already, ie put_page_refs() has this:
#ifdef CONFIG_DEBUG_VM
if (VM_WARN_ON_ONCE_PAGE(page_ref_count(page) < refs, page))
return;
#endif
And yeah, it shouldn't have that '#ifdef CONFIG_DEBUG_VM' there, but I
think it's because the non-CONFIG_DEBUG_VM #define for
VM_WARN_ON_ONCE_PAGE() is broken, and doesn't return 0.
