I think the important part to find out is if the in-kernel TLS API
has a limitation to PAGE_SIZE buffer segments, or not.  If it does
we need to disable large folios for the in-kernel consumers of the
API, which is easy (but annoying) for NFS that trigger this, but quite
painful for NVMe.  Or the API is supposed to handle it and just this
one offload gets it wrong, in which case we need to fix it.
