NULL pointer dereference is triggered when calling thp split via debugfs
on the system with offlined memory blocks.  With debug option enabled, the
following kernel messages are printed out:

  kernel BUG at include/linux/mm.h:1248!
  invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP PTI
  CPU: 16 PID: 20964 Comm: bash Tainted: G          I        6.0.0-rc3-foll-numa+ #41

  RIP: 0010:split_huge_pages_write+0xcf4/0xe30

This shows that page_to_nid() in page_zone() is unexpectedly called for an
offlined memmap.

Use pfn_to_online_page() to get struct page in PFN walker.

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 Restructured Text 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.
