IIUC any shmem vma that used to have uprobe/bp installed will have anon_vma set here, then does it mean that any vma used to get debugged will never be able to merge into a thp (with either madvise or khugepaged)? I think it'll only make a difference when the page cache is not huge yet when bp was uninstalled, but then it becomes a thp candidate somehow. Even if so, I think the anon_vma should still be there.

Then could it possible that right after checking this and found !UFFD_WP, but then someone quickly (1) register uffd-wp on this vma, then UFFDIO_WRITEPROTECT to install some pte markers, before below pgtable locks taken? The thing is installation of pte markers may not need either of the locks iiuc.. Would taking mmap read lock help in this case?
