I don't understand why we need these checks in the deletion path.  The
add path, yes, absolutely.  But the delete path?

But I don't understand why you put it here, while we're holding the
xa_lock.  That seems designed to cause maximum disruption.  Why not put
it at the beginning of the function with all the other VM_BUG_ON_FOLIO?

I would not do this here.

Put it here instead.

Then you don't need this BUG_ON because it's obvious you just did it.
And the one in filemap_add_folio() would catch it anyway.
