mm/khugepaged: fix race with folio split/free using temporary reference
hpage_collapse_scan_file() calls is_refcount_suitable(), which in turn
calls folio_mapcount(). folio_mapcount() checks folio_test_large() before
proceeding to folio_large_mapcount(), but there is a race window where the
folio may get split/freed between these checks, triggering:
VM_WARN_ON_FOLIO(!folio_test_large(folio), folio)
Take a temporary reference to the folio in hpage_collapse_scan_file().
This stabilizes the folio during refcount check and prevents incorrect
large folio detection due to concurrent split/free. Use helper
folio_expected_ref_count() + 1 to compare with folio_ref_count() instead
of using is_refcount_suitable().
