Hi Hugh, I got the following warning from the removed "else" branch.
Is it legit? Thanks.

mm/rmap.c:1236:13: warning: variable 'first' is used uninitialized
whenever 'if' condition is false [-Wsometimes-uninitialized]
        } else if (PageTransHuge(page)) {
                   ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
mm/rmap.c:1248:18: note: uninitialized use occurs here
        VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(!first && (flags & RMAP_EXCLUSIVE), page);
                        ^~~~~
