try_to_unmap_one() would not be called with folio==NULL, I guess.

I just moved 'VM_BUG_ON(freeze && !folio)' from __split_huge_pmd() to here,
and now __split_huge_pmd() will call split_huge_pmd_locked().

Hmm... after calling split_huge_pmd_locked(), we also do
"flags &= ~TTU_SPLIT_HUGE_PMD", preventing re-entry into this block,
then triggering the VM_BUG_ON_FOLIO() below if split_huge_pmd_locked()
fails, IIUC.

What do you think?
