The quilt patch titled

Subject: mm/zone_device: do not touch device folio after calling ->folio_free()
Date: Fri, 10 Apr 2026 16:03:46 -0700
The contents of a device folio can immediately change after calling
->folio_free(), as the folio may be reallocated by a driver with a
different order. Instead of touching the folio again to extract the
pgmap, use the local stack variable when calling percpu_ref_put_many().
