Why do we need to lock the folio? (since this isn't necessarily a
folio)
Can you clarify the "since this isn't necessarily a folio" part ? Do you
mean in the future, when we split "struct page" and "struct folio"?
Doing an rmap walk on something that won't be a folio is ... sounds odd
(->wrong :) )
