Can you elaborate why you think this would be required? If we would have 
performed the  split_huge_pmd_address() beforehand, we would still be 
left with a large folio, no?

Using range.start here is a bit weird. Wouldn't this be pvmw.address?

Would we want a

page_vma_mapped_walk_restart() that is exactly for that purpose?
