I think you need:

+#if IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_HUGETLBFS)

> +		return;
+#endif

I think this worked before because folio_test_hugetlb was defined by:
FOLIO_TEST_FLAG_FALSE(hugetlb)
and evidently compiler optimizes out the free_huge_folio(folio) before
linking.

You'll probably want to do the same for the PGTY_guestmem in the later
patch!
