Good news the patch works and the warning at mm/page_table_check.c:198
__page_table_check_ptes_set+0x306 is gone.
Tested-by: Mikhail Gavrilov <mikhail.v.gavrilov@xxxxxxxxx>

Bad news the testing terminated with an old annoying problem which
appeared during the 6.9 release cycle [1] and looks like it has not
been fixed yet.
