Currently, vmemmap optimization of hugetlb pages is performed before the hugetlb flag (previously hugetlb destructor) is set identifying it as a hugetlb folio. This means there is a window of time where an ordinary folio does not have all associated vmemmap present. The core mm only expects vmemmap to be potentially optimized for hugetlb and device dax. This can cause problems in code such as memory error handling that may want to write to tail struct pages. There is only one call to perform hugetlb vmemmap optimization today. To fix this issue, simply set the hugetlb flag before that call. There was a similar issue in the free hugetlb path that was previously addressed. The two routines that optimize or restore hugetlb vmemmap should only be passed hugetlb folios/pages. To catch any callers not following this rule, add VM_WARN_ON calls to the routines. In the hugetlb free code paths, some calls could be made to restore vmemmap after clearing the hugetlb flag. This was 'safe' as in these cases vmemmap was already present and the call was a NOOP. However, for consistency these calls where eliminated so that we can add the VM_WARN_ON checks.
