Subject: mm: mlock: avoid folio_within_range() on KSM pages
Date: Mon, 23 Oct 2023 23:38:41 -0700 (PDT)

Since commit dc68badcede4 ("mm: mlock: update mlock_pte_range to handle
large folio") I've just occasionally seen VM_WARN_ON_FOLIO(folio_test_ksm)
warnings from folio_within_range(), in a splurge after testing with KSM
hyperactive.

folio_referenced_one()'s use of folio_within_vma() is safe because it
checks folio_test_large() first; but allow_mlock_munlock() needs to do the
same to avoid those warnings (or check !folio_test_ksm() itself?  or move
either check into folio_within_range()?  hard to tell without more
examples of its use).
