mm/huge_memory: adjust try_to_migrate_one() and split_huge_pmd_locked()

Browse source

Patch series "Clean up split_huge_pmd_locked() and remove unnecessary
folio pointers", v2.

The patch series enhances the folio verification by leveraging the
existing page_vma_mapped_walk() mechanism and removing redundant folio
pointer passing.


This patch (of 2):

split_huge_pmd_locked() currently performs redundant checks for migration
entries and folio validation that are already handled by the
page_vma_mapped_walk mechanism in try_to_migrate_one.

Specifically, page_vma_mapped_walk already ensures that:
- The folio is properly mapped in the given VMA area
- pmd_trans_huge, pmd_devmap, and migration entry validation are
  performed

To leverage page_vma_mapped_walk's work, moving TTU_SPLIT_HUGE_PMD
handling to the while loop checking and removing these duplicate checks
from split_huge_pmd_locked.
