The folio_test_anon(folio)==false case within do_swap_page() has been
relocated to folio_add_new_anon_rmap(). Additionally, two other callers
consistently pass anonymous folios.

stack 1:
remove_migration_pmd
-> folio_add_anon_rmap_pmd
-> __folio_add_anon_rmap

stack 2:
__split_huge_pmd_locked
-> folio_add_anon_rmap_ptes
-> __folio_add_anon_rmap

__folio_add_anon_rmap() only needs to handle the cases
folio_test_anon(folio)==true now.

My team reported a case where swapoff() is calling
folio_add_anon_rmap_pte *not* folio_add_anon_rmap_ptes
with one new anon (!folio_test_anon(folio)).

I will double check all folio_add_anon_rmap_pte() cases.

Right, swapoff() path is a bit special (e.g., we don't do any kind of
batching on the swapoff() path).

But we should never get a new large anon folio there, or could that now
happen?

My team encountered the following issue while testing this RFC
series on real hardware. Let me take a look to identify the
problem.

Ah, yes. in unuse_pte(), you'll have to do the right thing if !folio_test(anon) before doing the folio_add_anon_rmap_pte().

You might have a fresh anon folio in the swapcache that was never mapped (hopefully order-0, otherwise we'd likely be in trouble).
