Please squash that patch directly in #1.

It doesn't make sense to leave something partially fixed in #1. It's
been completely broken from the start. folio_mk_pmd() should never have
been used.

The reason was to make sure that in theory the correct trees can be updated based on Fixes: for each. But I agree that it probably doesn't really matter.


Apart from that, the end results LGTM, thanks
