syzbot ci has tested the following series

[v1] mm/rmap: index MAP_PRIVATE file-backed folios by virt pgoff
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260717-b4-scalable-cow-v...@kernel.org
* [PATCH 01/15] mm/vma: introduce VMA virtual page offset field and add helpers
* [PATCH 02/15] mm: introduce linear_virt_page_index()
* [PATCH 03/15] mm: abstract vma_address() and introduce vma_anon_address()
* [PATCH 04/15] mm: update print_bad_page_map() to show virtual page index
* [PATCH 05/15] mm: introduce and use vma_filebacked_address()
* [PATCH 06/15] mm: propagate VMA virtual page offset on map, remap, split + merge
* [PATCH 07/15] mm/rmap: track whether the page VMA mapped walk is anonymous
* [PATCH 08/15] mm: introduce and use linear_folio_page_index()
* [PATCH 09/15] mm/rmap: use virt pgoff for MAP_PRIVATE file-backed anon folios
* [PATCH 10/15] tools/testing/vma: expand VMA merge tests to assert virt pgoff
* [PATCH 11/15] tools/testing/selftests/mm: test virtual page offset merge behaviour
* [PATCH 12/15] mm/vma: only permit MAP_PRIVATE /dev/zero to be mapped anonymous
* [PATCH 13/15] mm/vma: make MAP_PRIVATE-mapped /dev/zero mappings truly anonymous
* [PATCH 14/15] tools/testing/vma: add test to assert MAP_PRIVATE-/dev/zero is anon
* [PATCH 15/15] tools/testing/selftests/mm: add MAP_PRIVATE-/dev/zero merge tests

Ah yeah, this is:

VM_WARN_ON_ONCE(folio_test_anon(folio));

In mapping_wrprotect_range_one() and... this test is completely superfluous
actually :)

The only caller is mapping_wrprotect_range() which literally passes a NULL folio
NULL to __rmap_walk_file() (with mapping_wrprotect_range_one set as the
rwc->rmap_one).

I'll ping on the relevant commit and ask Andrew to just drop this line.

Cheers, Lorenzo
