Incidentally, it does that before it goes ahead and calls filemap_read_folio(),
with ->read_folio() as callback.  So if it does make it STFU, the case 1 (->read_folio()
not called at all) is out of running.  Would be interesting to see if that particular
->read_folio() is returning errors and if so - what errors are actually returned.
