Commit 28ee90fe6048 ("x86/mm: implement free pmd/pte page interfaces")
introduced a new location where a pmd was released, but neglected to run
the pmd page destructor. In fact, this happened previously for a
different pmd release path and was fixed by commit:

c283610e44ec ("x86, mm: do not leak page->ptl for pmd page tables").

This issue was hidden until recently because the failure mode is silent,
but commit:

b2b29d6d0119 ("mm: account PMD tables like PTE tables")

...turns the failure mode into this signature:

 BUG: Bad page state in process lt-pmem-ns  pfn:15943d

Given this is a repeat occurrence it seemed prudent to look for other
places where this destructor might be missing and whether a better
helper is needed. try_to_free_pmd_page() looks like a candidate, but
testing with setting up and tearing down pmd mappings via the dax unit
tests is thus far not triggering the failure. As for a better helper
pmd_free() is close, but it is a messy fit due to requiring an @mm arg.
Also, ___pmd_free_tlb() wants to call paravirt_tlb_remove_table()
instead of free_page(), so open-coded pgtable_pmd_page_dtor() seems the
best way forward for now.

Might I tempt an x86/mm maintainer to ack this, or a x86-tip
maintainer to apply it outright?

Looks sane.  Thanks as always for the thorough changelog and the
investigation into why we're suddenly seeing this now.

I agree that ridding ourselves of open-coded free_page()'s is a good
idea, but this patch itself needs to be around for stable anyway.  So,
