Jann Horn 48b00ceb54 mm/khugepaged: fix GUP-fast interaction by sending IPI
commit 2ba99c5e08812494bc57f319fb562f527d9bacd8 upstream.

Since commit 70cbc3cc78a99 ("mm: gup: fix the fast GUP race against THP
collapse"), the lockless_pages_from_mm() fastpath rechecks the pmd_t to
ensure that the page table was not removed by khugepaged in between.

However, lockless_pages_from_mm() still requires that the page table is
not concurrently freed.  Fix it by sending IPIs (if the architecture uses
semi-RCU-style page table freeing) before freeing/reusing page tables.

[manual backport: two of the three places in khugepaged that can free
ptes were refactored into a common helper between 5.15 and 6.0;
TLB flushing was refactored between 5.4 and 5.10]

README

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.
