Subject: [PATCH 2/2] madvise: don't use mapcount() against large folio for sharing check
The commits
98b211d6415f ("madvise: convert madvise_free_pte_range() to use
a folio")
fc986a38b670 ("mm: huge_memory: convert madvise_free_huge_pmd to
use a folio")
replaced the page_mapcount() with folio_mapcount() to check whether
the folio is shared by other mapping.
But it's not correct for large folio. folio_mapcount() returns the
total mapcount of large folio which is not suitable to detect whether
the folio is shared.
Use folio_estimated_sharers() which returns a estimated number of
shares. That means it's not 100% correct. But it should be OK for
madvise case here.
