Subject: [PATCH v2 2/3] mm: use folio_add_new_anon_rmap() if folio_test_anon(folio)==false

From: Barry Song <v-songbaohua@...o.com>

For the !folio_test_anon(folio) case, we can now invoke folio_add_new_anon_rmap()
with the rmap flags set to either EXCLUSIVE or non-EXCLUSIVE. This action will
suppress the VM_WARN_ON_FOLIO check within __folio_add_anon_rmap() while initiating
the process of bringing up mTHP swapin.

 static __always_inline void __folio_add_anon_rmap(struct folio *folio,
                 struct page *page, int nr_pages, struct vm_area_struct *vma,
                 unsigned long address, rmap_t flags, enum rmap_level level)
 {
         ...
         if (unlikely(!folio_test_anon(folio))) {
                 VM_WARN_ON_FOLIO(folio_test_large(folio) &&
                                  level != RMAP_LEVEL_PMD, folio);
         }
         ...
 }

It also improves the code’s readability. Currently, all new anonymous
folios calling folio_add_anon_rmap_ptes() are order-0. This ensures
that new folios cannot be partially exclusive; they are either entirely
exclusive or entirely shared.
