There's one pmd_bad() check, but should be better to use pmd_clear_bad()
which is part of pmd_trans_unstable().
And I assume that's not enough, because there can be race of thp insertion
when reaching pmd_bad(), so it can be !bad but a thp, then the walk is
illegal.
There's one case though where the function used pmd_trans_unstable() but
only for pmd split. Merge them into one, and if it happens retry the whole
pmd.
