I wouldn't worry too much on the interface change - The one who will change the
interface should guarantee all existing hooks will still work, isn't it? :)
It's slightly confusing to me on why "clear_refs should only operate on
complete vmas" is related to the check, though.

Right, this seems to be a placeholder for unsharing code.
Though maybe we can do that earlier in pre_vma() hook? That should be per-vma
rather than handling one specific huge page here, hence more efficient imho.
this reminded me that I should also better move hugetlb_unshare_all_pmds() of
my other patch into hugetlb.c, so that this code can call it. Currently it's a
static function in userfaultfd.c.

Maybe move this check into clear_refs_test_walk()? We can bail out earlier if:
(is_vm_hugetlb_page(vma) && (type != CLEAR_REFS_SOFT_DIRTY))

Out of topic of this patchset, but it's definitely a pity that we can't track
soft dirty for pinned pages. Currently the assumption of the pte code path is:
"if this page can be DMA written then we won't know whether data changed after
all, then tracking dirty is meaningless", however that's prone to change when
new hardwares coming, say, IOMMU could start to trap DMA writes already.
But again that's another story.. and we should just follow what we do with
non-hugetlbfs for sure here, until some day if we'd like to revive soft dirty
tracking with pinned pages.

Ideally when reach here, huge pmd sharing won't ever exist, right? Then do we
still need to adjust the range at all?
