LGTM! thanks.

Good spot, something like this:

	} else {
		for (; nr != 0; nr--, page++) {
			/* Is this the page's last map to be removed? */
			last = atomic_add_negative(-1, &page->_mapcount);
			if (last)
				nr_unmapped++;
		}

		/* Pages still mapped if folio mapped entirely */
		nr_mapped = atomic_sub_return_relaxed(nr_unmapped, mapped);
		if (nr_mapped >= COMPOUND_MAPPED)
			nr_unmapped = 0;
	}
