I think you are right. Cc stable should be removed. But this patch has been merged into
mm-hotfixes-stable branch, so might Andrew can kindly help modify this?

I reproduced the crash today with commit be9581ea8c05 ("mm: fix crashes from deferred split racing folio migration") reverted:

This requires memory_hugetlb_accounting is enabled on cgroup2. Or folio_memcg of hugetlb folio will be NULL
and thus simply return before calling folio_undo_large_rmappable() in mem_cgroup_migrate().
memory_hugetlb_accounting isnot enable in my test env, so I didn't trigger this bug earlier.

So Fixes: be9581ea8c05 ("mm: fix crashes from deferred split racing folio migration") tag might also be removed?

IIUC, large_rmappable is only used for thp. See below code:

static inline bool is_transparent_hugepage(const struct folio *folio)
{
	if (!folio_test_large(folio))
		return false;

	return is_huge_zero_folio(folio) ||
		folio_test_large_rmappable(folio);
}

But I might be miss something.
Thanks.
