Oleg Nesterov 46d0b24c5e userfaultfd_release: always remove uffd flags and clear vm_userfaultfd_ctx
userfaultfd_release() should clear vm_flags/vm_userfaultfd_ctx even if
mm->core_state != NULL.

Otherwise a page fault can see userfaultfd_missing() == T and use an
already freed userfaultfd_ctx.

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.
