Hugh Dickins a3477c9e02 mm/thp: fix deferred split queue not partially_mapped: fix
Though even more elusive than before, list_del corruption has still been
seen on THP's deferred split queue.

The idea in commit e66f3185fa was right, but its implementation wrong. 
The context omitted an important comment just before the critical test:
"split_folio() removes folio from list on success." In ignoring that
comment, when a THP split succeeded, the code went on to release the
preceding safe folio, preserving instead an irrelevant (formerly head)
folio: which gives no safety because it's not on the list.  Fix the logic.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
