It is important to check if this failure occurred to prevent a huge PMD straddling at VMA boundary. The vma_adjust_trans_huge() call is moved before vma_prepare() in all three callers (__split_vma, vma_shrink, commit_merge). Previously it sat between vma_prepare() and vma_complete(), where there is no mechanism to abort - once vma_prepare() has been called, we must reach vma_complete(). By moving the call earlier, a split failure can return -ENOMEM cleanly without needing to undo VMA preparation. This move is safe because vma_adjust_trans_huge() acquires its own pmd_lock() internally and does not depend on any locks or state changes from vma_prepare(). The VMA boundaries are also unchanged at the new call site, satisfying __split_huge_pmd_locked()'s requirement that the VMA covers the full PMD range. All 3 callers (__split_vma, vma_shrink, commit_merge) already return -ENOMEM if there are allocation failures for other reasons (failure in vma_iter_prealloc for example), this follows the same pattern.
