When running autonuma with enabling multi-size THP, I encountered the following kernel crash issue: [ 134.290216] list_del corruption. prev->next should be fffff9ad42e1c490, but was dead000000000100.

During the subsequent release process of the old large folio in destroy_large_folio(), if the large folio needs to be removed from the split queue, an incorrect split queue can be obtained (which is pgdat->deferred_split_queue) because the old folio's memcg is NULL now. This can lead to list operations being performed under the wrong split queue lock protection, resulting in a list crash as above. After the migration, the old folio is going to be freed, so we can remove it from the split queue in mem_cgroup_migrate() a bit earlier before clearing the memcg data to avoid getting incorrect split queue.

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 Restructured Text 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.
