Subject: mm: rmap: add a ZONE_DEVICE folio warning in folio_referenced()
Date: Fri, 6 Mar 2026 14:43:39 +0800

The folio_referenced() is used to test whether a folio was referenced
during reclaim.  Moreover, ZONE_DEVICE folios are controlled by their
device driver, have a lifetime tied to that driver, and are never placed
on the LRU list.  That means we should never try to reclaim ZONE_DEVICE
folios, so add a warning to catch this unexpected behavior in
folio_referenced() to avoid confusion, as discussed in the previous
thread[1].
