If I would have to guess, I would assume that we have a refcount issue such

That would seem hard to accomplish, because both hold the folio lock,
so it wouldn't be just a refcount bug but also a locking bug. Not sure
what this is though.

Yeah, but we also have

https://lkml.kernel.org/r/6774bf44.050a0220.25abdd.098a.GAE@xxxxxxxxxx

That one is a UAF on the vma, so it's either a different issue, or the
problem is with the VMA refcount/lookup/..., not the folio refcount.
cc'ing the relevant maintainers.

Agreed, it's all a bit confusing.
