Does it trigger reliably? Which pagesize is that kernel using?

I can spot that uffd_move_pmd_test()/uffd_move_pmd_handle_fault() uses 
default_huge_page_size(), which reads the default hugetlb size.

That, however, does not necessarily correspond to the THP size. That one 
can be obtained using read_pmd_pagesize() in vm_util.c

I quickly scanned the code (still want to take a deeper look), but all 
PAE checks looked sane to me.

I think the issue is folio split handling. I replied to the patch.
