This is especially annoying in block devices and filesystems where we attach multiple ZERO_PAGEs to the bio in different bvecs. With multipage bvec support in block layer, it is much more efficient to send out larger zero pages as a part of single bvec. This concern was raised during the review of adding LBS support to XFS[1][2]. Usually huge_zero_folio is allocated on demand, and it will be deallocated by the shrinker if there are no users of it left. At moment, huge_zero_folio infrastructure refcount is tied to the process lifetime that created it. This might not work for bio layer as the completitions can be async and the process that created the huge_zero_folio might no longer be alive. Add a config option STATIC_PMD_ZERO_PAGE that will always allocate the huge_zero_folio, and it will never be freed. This makes using the huge_zero_folio without having to pass any mm struct and does not tie the lifetime of the zero folio to anything. memblock is used to allocated this PMD zero page during early boot. If STATIC_PMD_ZERO_PAGE config option is enabled, then mm_get_huge_zero_folio() will simply return this page instead of dynamically allocating a new PMD page. As STATIC_PMD_ZERO_PAGE does not depend on THP, declare huge_zero_folio and huge_zero_pfn outside the THP config.
