Subject: [PATCH] mm: allow set/clear page_type again

Some page flags (page->flags) were converted to page types
(page->page_types).  A recent example is PG_hugetlb.

From the exclusive writer's perspective, e.g., a thread doing
__folio_set_hugetlb(), there is a difference between the page flag and
type APIs: the former allows the same non-atomic operation to be repeated
whereas the latter does not.  For example, calling __folio_set_hugetlb()
twice triggers VM_BUG_ON_FOLIO(), since the second call expects the type
(PG_hugetlb) not to be set previously.

Using add_hugetlb_folio() as an example, it calls __folio_set_hugetlb() in
the following error-handling path.  And when that happens, it triggers the
aforementioned VM_BUG_ON_FOLIO().

  if (folio_test_hugetlb(folio)) {
    rc = hugetlb_vmemmap_restore_folio(h, folio);
    if (rc) {
      spin_lock_irq(&hugetlb_lock);
      add_hugetlb_folio(h, folio, false);
      ...

It is possible to make hugeTLB comply with the new requirements from the
page type API.  However, a straightforward fix would be to just allow the
same page type to be set or cleared again inside the API, to avoid any
changes to its callers.
