Balbir Singh cab812d9c9 mm/huge_memory.c: introduce folio_split_unmapped
Unmapped was added as a parameter to __folio_split() and related call
sites to support splitting of folios already in the midst of a migration. 
This special case arose for device private folio migration since during
migration there could be a disconnect between source and destination on
the folio size.

Introduce folio_split_unmapped() to handle this special case.  Also
refactor code and add __folio_freeze_and_split_unmapped() helper that is
common to both __folio_split() and folio_split_unmapped().

This in turn removes the special casing introduced by the unmapped
parameter in __folio_split().

README

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.
