[PATCH v2 3/6] mm: rmap: add a ZONE_DEVICE folio warning in folio_referenced()

[Baolin Wang]

The folio_referenced() is used to test whether a folio was referenced during
reclaim. Moreover, ZONE_DEVICE folios are controlled by their device driver,
have a lifetime tied to that driver, and are never placed on the LRU list.
That means we should never try to reclaim ZONE_DEVICE folios, so add a warning
to catch this unexpected behavior in folio_referenced() to avoid confusion,
as discussed in the previous thread[1].
