By the time we lock a page in collapse_pte_mapped_thp(), the page mapped by the address pushed onto the slot's .pte_mapped_thp[] array might have changed arbitrarily since we last looked at it. We revalidate that the page is still the head of a compound page, but we don't revalidate if the compound page is of order HPAGE_PMD_ORDER before applying rmap and page table updates. Since the kernel now supports large folios of arbitrary order, and since replacing page's pte mappings by a pmd mapping only makes sense for compound pages of order HPAGE_PMD_ORDER, revalidate that the compound order is indeed of order HPAGE_PMD_ORDER before proceeding.
