Not sure if realted to io_uring.

unmap_poisoned_folio() calls try_to_unmap() without TTU_SPLIT_HUGE_PMD.

When called from memory_failure(), we make sure to never call it on a large folio: WARN_ON(folio_test_large(folio));

However, from shrink_folio_list() we might call unmap_poisoned_folio() on a large folio, which doesn't work if it is still PMD-mapped. Maybe passing TTU_SPLIT_HUGE_PMD would fix it.


Likely the relevant commit is:
