The functions wp_huge_pmd() and wp_huge_pud() currently relies on the huge_fault() callback to split huge page table entries if needed. However for module users that requires export of the split_huge_xxx() functionality which may be undesired. Instead split pre-existing huge page-table entries on VM_FAULT_FALLBACK return. We currently only do COW and write-notify on the PTE level, so if the huge_fault() handler returns VM_FAULT_FALLBACK on wp faults, split the huge pages and page-table entries. Also do this for huge PUDs if there is no huge_fault() handler and the vma is not anonymous, similar to how it's done for PMDs. Note that fs/dax.c still does the splitting in the huge_fault() handler, but as huge_fault() A follow-up patch can remove the dax.c split_huge_pmd() if needed.
