Subject: [PATCH v4] huge_memory: return -EINVAL in folio split functions when THP is disabled
From: Pankaj Raghav <p.raghav@...sung.com>
split_huge_page_to_list_[to_order](), split_huge_page() and
try_folio_split() return 0 on success and error codes on failure.
When THP is disabled, these functions return 0 indicating success even
though an error code should be returned as it is not possible to split a
folio when THP is disabled.
Make all these functions return -EINVAL to indicate failure instead of
0. As large folios depend on CONFIG_THP, issue warning as this function
should not be called without a large folio.

Changes since v3:
- use VM_WARN_ON_ONCE_PAGE instead of the folio version in functions
that take a page.
Changes since v2:
- use page_folio(page) directly in VM_WARN_ON_ONCE_FOLIO
