Although shmem_get_folio_gfp() is correctly putting inodes on the shrinklist according to the folio size, shmem_unused_huge_shrink() was still dealing with that shrinklist in terms of HPAGE_PMD_SIZE. Generalize that; and to handle the mixture of sizes more sensibly, shmem_alloc_and_add_folio() give it a number of pages to be freed (approximate: no need to minimize that with an exact calculation) instead of a number of inodes to split.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
