Just add another user scenario concering this kernel warning.
Ever since 6.10-rc1, when I suspend my system via `systemctl suspend`, nvidia gpu driver would trigger a warning:

             	 PM: suspend entry (deep)

Considering out-of-tree nature of nvidia gpu driver, and nobody reported this kernel warning before with in-trees,
 I had almost convinced myself that nvidia driver may need "big" rework to live with those "PTE" changes.
So glad to see this thread of discussion/issue/fix now, I have been patching my system manually ever since 6.10-rc1,
hope things got fixed soon...
