[ Upstream commit 6e49019db5f7a09a9c0e8ac4d108e656c3f8e583 ] This issue is not from any report yet, but by code observation only. This is yet another fix besides Hugh's patch [1] but on relevant code path, where eager split of folio can happen if the folio is already on deferred list during a folio migration. Here the issue is NUMA path (migrate_misplaced_folio()) may start to encounter such folio split now even with MR_NUMA_MISPLACED hint applied. Then when migrate_pages() didn't migrate all the folios, it's possible the split small folios be put onto the list instead of the original folio. Then putting back only the head page won't be enough. Fix it by putting back all the folios on the list.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
