Subject: mm/rmap: batch unmap file folios belonging to uffd-wp VMAs
Date: Mon, 20 Jul 2026 06:55:07 +0000

Commit a67fe41e214f ("mm: rmap: support batched unmapping for file large
folios") extended batched unmapping for file folios.  That also required
making pte_install_uffd_wp_if_needed() support batching, but that was left
out for the time being.  Correctness was maintained by stopping batching
if the VMA the folio belongs to is marked uffd-wp.

Now that cond_install_uffd_wp_ptes() supports batching, call it with the
full batch length and allow folio_unmap_pte_batch() to batch file folios
belonging to uffd-wp VMAs.

For file folios, if the uffd-wp bit is set, unmapping converts present
PTEs into uffd-wp markers.  We must ensure that the same PTE range is not
reprocessed by the try_to_unmap_one() loop.

The page_vma_mapped_walk API ensures this: check_pte() only returns true
if any PFN in [pvmw->pfn, pvmw->pfn + nr_pages) is mapped by the PTE. 
There is no PFN underlying a uffd-wp marker PTE, so check_pte() returns
false and the walk skips ahead until it reaches a present entry again.
