You can't call page_folio() until after __do_fault(). Did you test this
series?

I thought it would be straightforward enough without testing but I didn't realize the initialization in __do_fault(). I will test and incorporate the other suggestions for a v2.

Thanks

ret = __do_fault(vmf);
if (unlikely(ret & (VM_FAULT_ERROR | VM_FAULT_NOPAGE | VM_FAULT_RETRY)))
