for PMD-mapped page,do_huge_pmd_numa_page() return head page
unsigned long haddr = vmf->address & HPAGE_PMD_MASK;
page = vm_normal_page_pmd(vma, haddr, pmd);
do_numa_page() only handle base page with PageCompound() check, so we
could use folio_estimated_sharers(), I am not clear why page_mapcount
is wrong here, could you explain more, thank.

Yes, for pte-mapped thp and the large folio numa migrate support, we
need remove the check, we could do it in another patchset.
