In preparation for the second patch, abstract away the THP allocation

There should be no functional change as a result of applying

I suggest calling this something like "vma_alloc_anon_folio_pmd()"?
Then it's more consistent with vma_alloc_folio().
Also, likely we should just only pass in "addr" and calculate "haddr"
ourselves, it's cheap and reduces the number of function parameters.
Makes sense, thanks.

Why isn't that moved into map_pmd_thp()
Note that in this patch you do:
map_pmd_thp(folio, vmf, vma, haddr);
spin_unlock(vmf->ptl);
__pmd_thp_fault_success_stats(vma);
But in patch #2
map_pmd_thp(folio, vmf, vma, haddr);
__pmd_thp_fault_success_stats(vma);
goto unlock;
release:
folio_put(folio);
unlock:
spin_unlock(vmf->ptl);
Yes, while writing it I knew about this inconsistency, but I wanted
to reduce latency by dropping the lock before. But in do_huge_zero_wp_pmd(),
I couldn't figure out a way to call the stat function after dropping the
lock,
without I guess, introducing too many labels and goto jumps and the
like. In the
current code, the lock gets dropped first.
Please make that consistent, meaning:
1) Inline __pmd_thp_fault_success_stats() into map_pmd_thp(). No need
to have the separated out.
2) Either do the PTL unlocking in __pmd_thp_fault_success_stats() or in
the caller. In the caller is likely easiest. Adjusting the counters
should be cheap, if not we could revisit this later with real data.
I will then call it in map_pmd_thp(), that is cleaner...I did find
occurrences
of these stat computations after taking the lock, for example, in
do_swap_page():
count_vm_event(PGMAJFAULT)
so I guess it should be alright.

It's quite weird to see a mixture of haddr and vmf->address, and
likely this mixture is wrong or not not required.
Looking at arc's update_mmu_cache_pmd() implementation, I cannot see
how passing in the unaligned address would do the right thing. But
maybe arc also doesn't trigger that code path ... who knows :)
Staring at some other update_mmu_cache_pmd() users, it's quite
inconsistent. Primarily only do_huge_pmd_numa_page() and
__do_huge_pmd_anonymous_page() use the unaligned address. The others
seem to use the aligned address ... as one would expect when modifying
a PMD.
I suggest to change this function to *not* pass in the vmf, and rename
it to something like:
static void folio_map_anon_pmd(struct folio *folio, struct
vm_area_struct *vma, pmd_t *pmd, unsigned long haddr)
Then use haddr also to do the update_mmu_cache_pmd().
The code I changed, already was passing vmf->address to
update_mmu_cache_pmd().
I did not change any of the haddr and vmf->address semantics, so really
can't comment
on this.
I agree with the name change; vmf will be required for
set_pmd_at(vmf->pmd), so I should
just pass pmd?

Nit: While at it, try to use reverse christmas-tree where possible,
makes things more reasible. You could make haddr const.
struct vm_area_struct *vma = vmf->vma;
unsigned long haddr = vmf->address & HPAGE_PMD_MASK;
gfp_t gfp = vma_thp_gfp_mask(vma);

Okay.

Are you asking me to align this line with the below line?
