Subject: Re: [PATCH] mm: huge_memory: add the missing folio_test_pmd_mappable() for THP split statistics

Hey Baolin,

Maybe I spotted a bug and made a change to this patch as follows.

diff --git a/mm/huge_memory.c b/mm/huge_memory.c

IIUC, if we split the folio successfully, it won’t be large here.

 		count_vm_event(!ret ? THP_SPLIT_PAGE : THP_SPLIT_PAGE_FAILED);
 	return ret;
 }

Thanks,
