Thanks a lot for fixing this! I was just looking at a test failure
report by the kernel robot caused by this [1].

Just to document my own stupidity here:

1. In [2], I sent a fix to use  __mod_node_page_state() instead of
__lruvec_stat_mod_folio() in __folio_remove_rmap(). I made the same
mistake of replacing subtraction with addition.

2. In [3], I sent a v2 of that fix that kept the subtraction in
__folio_remove_rmap() correctly.

3. In [4], I sent a cleanup on top of the fix, and that cleanup
replaced the subtraction in __folio_remove_rmap() with an addition,
again.

Apparently, I just suck at subtraction :)
