When this occurs, vmf_anon_prepare() will release the vma lock. Hugetlb then attempts to call restore_reserve_on_error(), which depends on the vma lock being held. We can move vmf_anon_prepare() prior to the folio allocation in order to avoid calling restore_reserve_on_error() without the vma lock.
