We add pmd folio into ds_queue on the first page fault in __do_huge_pmd_anonymous_page(), so that we can split it in case of memory pressure. This should be the same for a pmd folio during wp page fault.
Commit 1ced09e0331f ("mm: allocate THP on hugezeropage wp-fault") miss to add it to ds_queue, which means system may not reclaim enough memory in case of memory pressure even the pmd folio is under used.
Move deferred_split_folio() into map_anon_folio_pmd() to make the pmd folio installation consistent.
