Hi,
This probably bounces on the list due to html junk from the gmail app.
What happened to
Included in the very series mentioned below?
Was this silently dropped due to folio conversion collisions? :/

The commit c444eb564fb1 ("mm: thp: make the THP mapcount atomic against
__split_huge_pmd_locked()") locked the page for PMD split to make
mapcount stable for reuse_swap_page(), then commit 1c2f67308af4 ("mm:
thp: fix MADV_REMOVE deadlock on shmem THP") reduce the scope to
anonymous page only.
However COW has not used mapcount to determine if the page is shared or
not anymore due to the COW fixes [1] from David Hildenbrand and the
reuse_swap_page() was removed as well. So PMD split doesn't have to
lock the page anymore. This patch basically reverted the above two
commits.
