Subject: [PATCH v7 01/10] mm: Allow deferred splitting of arbitrary anon large folios

In preparation for the introduction of anonymous small-sized THP, we
would like to be able to split them when they have unmapped subpages, in
order to free those unused pages under memory pressure. So remove the
artificial requirement that the large folio needed to be at least
PMD-sized.
