split_huge_page_to_list() WARNs when called for huge zero pages, which sounds to me too harsh because it does not imply a kernel bug, but just notifies the event to admins. On the other hand, this is considered as critical by syzkaller and makes its testing less efficient, which seems to me harmful.
So replace the VM_WARN_ON_ONCE_FOLIO with pr_warn_ratelimited.
