Yes.

I'm not sure I follow. That's currently done in calc_anon_folio_map_pgcount(). I
could move it to here, but I'm not sure that makes things simpler, just puts
more code in here and less in there?

Yeah that's fair. I'd be inclined to put that in zap_anon_pte_range() to short
circuit calc_anon_folio_map_pgcount(). But ultimately zap_anon_pte_range() would
still zap the single pte.
