Infinite loop within __get_longterm_locked detected in an unique usage
of pin_user_pages where the VA's pages are all unpinnable(vm_ops->fault
function allocate pages via cma_alloc for hardware purpose and leave them
out of LRU). Fixing this by have 'collected' reflect the actual number
of pages in movable_folio_list.

The above is rather terse, although perhaps by kernel standards it's OK.

Isn't this missing a Fixes tag?

Well, this seems correct to me. Somehow I talked myself into believing
that it was OK to do collected++ early, even though later on we skip
actually collecting the folio, thus miscounting things.

But now I believe it was just incorrect all along.
