Ah, thanks.  The changelog has a stray ^---$:

: If CONFIG_DEBUG_VM is enabled, we do at least get a BUG(), but otherwise,
: it will dereference a bad pointer in page_folio():
: 
:     static inline struct folio *hugetlb_swap_entry_to_folio(swp_entry_t entry)
:     {
:         VM_BUG_ON(!is_migration_entry(entry) && !is_hwpoison_entry(entry));
: 
:         return page_folio(pfn_to_page(swp_offset_pfn(entry)));
:     }
: 
: 
: Fix

<chomp>

: The simplest fix would have been to revert the dodgy cleanup commit
: 18f3962953e4 ("mm: hugetlb: kill set_huge_swap_pte_at()"), but since
: things have moved on, this would have required an audit of all the new
: set_huge_pte_at() call sites to see if they should be converted to
: set_huge_swap_pte_at().  As per the original intent of the change, it

That's actually from the [0/n] intro, which I pasted into the [1/n]
changelog.

It gets through my scripts OK
(https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/25-new.git/tree/patches/mm-hugetlb-add-huge-page-size-param-to-set_huge_pte_at.patch),
but it looks like git-quiltimport did the deed.

Let me add a check for that...
