A partially_mapped folio on deferred list wont become non-partially mapped.

The function arguments of deferred_split_folio make it seem that passing partially_mapped=false as an argument would clear it, which is why I cleared it as well. I could change the patch to something like below if it makes things better? i.e. add a comment at the top of the function:

So I had sent the below without the VM_WARN_ON_FOLIO as a reply to the other email, below is with VM_WARN.
