From: Peter Xu <peterx@xxxxxxxxxx> Commit 0cf18e839f64 of large folio zap work broke uffd-wp. Now mm's uffd unit test "wp-unpopulated" will trigger this WARN_ON_ONCE(). The WARN_ON_ONCE() asserts that an VMA cannot be registered with userfaultfd-wp if it contains a !normal page, but it's actually possible. One example is an anonymous vma, register with uffd-wp, read anything will install a zero page. Then when zap on it, this should trigger. What's more, removing that WARN_ON_ONCE may not be enough either, because we should also not rely on "whether it's a normal page" to decide whether pte marker is needed. For example, one can register wr-protect over some DAX regions to track writes when UFFD_FEATURE_WP_ASYNC enabled, in which case it can have page==NULL for a devmap but we may want to keep the marker around.
