Subject: [PATCH 0/4] reparent the THP split queue

Hi all,

In the future, we will reparent LRU folios during memcg offline to eliminate
dying memory cgroups, which requires reparenting the THP split queue to its
parent memcg.

Similar to list_lru, the split queue is relatively independent and does not need
to be reparented along with objcg and LRU folios (holding objcg lock and lru
lock). Therefore, we can apply the same mechanism as list_lru to reparent the
split queue first when memcg is offine.

The first three patches in this series are separated from the series
"Eliminate Dying Memory Cgroup" [1], mainly to do some cleanup and preparatory
work. The changes to them are as follows:
 - fix bad unlock balance in [PATCH RFC 06/28]
 - fix the missing cleanup of partially_mapped state and counter in
   [PATCH RFC 07/28]
 - collect Acked-bys

The last patch reparents the THP split queue to its parent memcg during memcg
offline.

This series is based on the next-20250917.

Comments and suggestions are welcome!

Thanks,
Qi
