Hi Pankaj,

Can you use ziy@xxxxxxxxxx instead of zi.yan@xxxxxxxx? Since I just use the latter
to send patches. Thanks.

You should only increase this counter when the input folio is a THP, namely
folio_test_pmd_mappable(folio) is true. For other large folios, we will
need a separate counter. Something like MTHP_STAT_FILE_SPLIT_FAILED.
See enum mthp_stat_item in include/linux/huge_mm.h.
