You're so focused on trying to accomplish your goal (killing off the
page_idle and page_young functions) that you're doing a poor job thinkig
about the conversions you're doing along the way.

Stop right here.  The use of compound_nr() should give you pause.

After looking at how smaps_account() is used, it seems to me that the
two callers should each pass in PAGE_SIZE or PMD_SIZE instead of doing
this calculation.

More generally, step back from this series.  Do a good job of
transforming fs/proc/task_mmu.c to use folios.  Once you've done
that, you can approach the young/idle work again.
