Device pages are currently never compound so page lock == folio lock. If
/ when this eventually change, then yea we'd need the folio lock. Given
this existing code operates on pages, I went with that. Ofc we could
change this to folio opertaions to future proof this.

Yes is / was a concern. I think the trylock here avoids any possible
locking inversions. Another concern is migrate_to_ram certainly
allocates memory under this page lock but since device pages cannot be
reclaimed this also is a non-issue, at least that is what Thomas and I
reasoned.

I'm not following most of the rest of the comments here, wrt to
fine-grained / large-scale locking.
