UPSTREAM: mm/thp: fix deferred split queue not partially_mapped: fix
Though even more elusive than before, list_del corruption has still been seen on THP's deferred split queue. The idea in commit e66f3185 was right, but its implementation wrong. The context omitted an important comment just before the critical test: "split_folio() removes folio from list on success." In ignoring that comment, when a THP split succeeded, the code went on to release the preceding safe folio, preserving instead an irrelevant (formerly head) folio: which gives no safety because it's not on the list. Fix the logic.
