Hum. I thought we didn't get here for hugetlb folios. What
stacktrace did you get?

I'm basing it on comments like this:

/* hugetlb has its own memcg */
if (folio_test_hugetlb(folio)) {
if (lruvec) {
unlock_page_lruvec_irqrestore(lruvec, flags);
lruvec = NULL;
}
free_huge_folio(folio);
continue;
}
