The above commit is still in your tree which makes it unbuildable since
the interface it uses does not exist in your tree (are you testing it?).

$ git grep -w largest_zero_folio vfs-brauner/vfs.all
vfs-brauner/vfs.all:fs/iomap/direct-io.c:       struct folio *zero_folio = largest_zero_folio();

$ git grep -w largest_zero_folio mm-unstable/mm-unstable 
mm-unstable/mm-unstable:block/blk-lib.c:        struct folio *zero_folio = largest_zero_folio();
mm-unstable/mm-unstable:include/linux/huge_mm.h: * largest_zero_folio - Get the largest zero size folio available
mm-unstable/mm-unstable:include/linux/huge_mm.h:static inline struct folio *largest_zero_folio(void)

Please fix this up - maybe just drop/revert that commit until it is
sorted out.
