Hi Andrew,

Can you fold the patch below into this one? It addresses the error
reported by syzbot at: 
https://lore.kernel.org/all/67af65cb.050a0220.21dd3.004a....@google.com/ and 
the concern raised
by David Hildenbrand at: 
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/db77d017-4a1e-4a47-9064-e335cb031...@redhat.com/.

Let me know if you prefer a new version of the whole series.

Thanks.

Subject: [PATCH] mm/huge_memory: do not drop the original folio during
 truncate.

The caller expects to handle the original folio itself.

also make __split_unmapped_folio() never fail, per discussion with David
Hildenbrand.
