Just to keep a record within this thread - my understanding is above issue is a
separate issue from what Nadav has fixed.  The other fix could be:

  https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20210923232512.210092-1-peterx@xxxxxxxxxx/

When verify with Nadav's patch, please check whether you have thp enabled
globally:

  # echo always > /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/enabled

Thanks,
