deferred_split_isolate() probes each queued folio with folio_try_get().
folio_try_get() failure is treated as a lost race with folio_put().

It leads to wrong results when !folio_try_get() was not caused by
folio_put(): for a frozen folio, PG_partially_mapped gets wrongfully
cleared and the folio dropped from the queue.

It came up in the review of my collapse RFC series:

  https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260824131224.73344-1-lance.yang@linux.dev/

The bug is inert in upstream code:

  - __folio_split() works around it;
  - __folio_migrate_mapping() freezes a folio it is about to replace;
  - reclaim freezes only what try_to_unmap() already unmapped.

No stable@ needed. But my collapse rework steps on it, so it is worth
fixing.

The branch the first patch removes also hid an inert, pre-existing bug in
the zone device path:

  https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260827163838.1813081-1-usama.arif@linux.dev/

The first patch fixes deferred_split_isolate().

The second patch removes the workaround for this deferred_split_isolate()
behaviour from __folio_freeze_and_split_unmapped().

Tested in a VM: split_huge_page_test, folio_split_race_test and cow pass.

Also ran a test that leaves 16 partially mapped THPs on the deferred
split queue and drives thp-deferred_split through debugfs, checking
nr_anon_partially_mapped.

v1: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260826162101.1314941-1-kirill@shutemov.name/

Changes since v1:
  - Spell out in the first patch who clears PG_partially_mapped and the
    stat once the shrinker stops doing it (David Hildenbrand).
  - Add Fixes: and Closes: tags (David Hildenbrand, Zi Yan).
  - Drop the three __folio_freeze_and_split_unmapped() cleanups: Kairui
    Song's swap THP cleanup series already carries the same changes.
  - Collect review tags.

  mm/huge_memory: do not touch frozen folios in deferred_split_isolate()
  mm/huge_memory: dequeue the deferred split after the split freeze
