I worth minimizing kernel config on which you can see the bug. Things like
CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC used to interfere with THP before.

You can also disable khugepaged, just in case.

One more thing: try add smp_wmb() in pgtable_trans_huge_withdraw() just
before return to make sure all CPUs sees _PAGE_INVALID.
I don't think it would make a difference. Again, just in case.
