From: "Kiryl Shutsemau (Meta)" The page cache caps folio order at MAX_PAGECACHE_ORDER, which is smaller than the PMD order on arm64 with 64K pages, where a PMD is 512M. A PMD-sized page cache folio is impossible there, so MADV_COLLAPSE answers -EINVAL and khugepaged passes over the range. The shmem cases ask for a PMD-sized folio anyway, so four of them fail and the run bails out in the middle. MAX_PAGECACHE_ORDER is not shmem-specific: it caps every file folio. Skip both mem types where the cap is below the PMD order. Anonymous collapse is unaffected: its orders are not capped this way.
