Yes, sorry for the confusion.

If I understand it correctly, we should change it as below, right?
static inline long page_pool_atomic_sub_frag_count_return(struct page *page,
long nr)
{
long ret;
/* As suggested by Alexander, atomic_long_read() may cover up the
* reference count errors, so avoid calling atomic_long_read() in
* the cases of freeing or draining the page_frags, where we would
* not expect it to match or that are slowpath anyway.
*/
if (__builtin_constant_p(nr) &&
atomic_long_read(&page->pp_frag_count) == nr)
return 0;
ret = atomic_long_sub_return(nr, &page->pp_frag_count);
WARN_ON(ret < 0);
return ret;
