Subject: [PATCH] mm/rmap: reject hugetlb folios in
 folio_make_device_exclusive()

Even though FOLL_SPLIT_PMD on hugetlb now always fails with -EOPNOTSUPP,
let's add a safety net in case FOLL_SPLIT_PMD usage would ever be
reworked.

In particular, before commit 9cb28da54643 ("mm/gup: handle hugetlb in the
generic follow_page_mask code"), GUP(FOLL_SPLIT_PMD) would just have
returned a page.  In particular, hugetlb folios that are not PMD-sized
would never have been prone to FOLL_SPLIT_PMD.

hugetlb folios can be anonymous, and page_make_device_exclusive_one() is
not really prepared for handling them at all.  So let's spell that out.
