I don't quite understand this. If this page table entry is exclusive,
will its subsequent page table entry also be exclusive without
question?
in try_to_unmap_one, exclusive is per-subpage but not per-folio:
anon_exclusive = folio_test_anon(folio) &&
PageAnonExclusive(subpage);
same questions also for diry, wp etc.
