If it's true, yes, it doesn't break MADV_FREE. However, I didn't spot that piece of code. What I found one is just __split_huge_page_tail which set PG_dirty to subpage if head page is dirty. IOW, if the head page is not dirty, tail page will be clean, too. Could you point out what routine set PG_dirty to all subpages unconditionally? Thanks.
