It turns out that we should *not* invert all not-present mappings,
because the all zeroes case is obviously special.
clear_page() does not undergo the XOR logic to invert the address bits,
i.e. PTE, PMD and PUD entries that have not been individually written
will have val=0 and so will trigger __pte_needs_invert(). As a result,
{pte,pmd,pud}_pfn() will return the wrong PFN value, i.e. all ones
(adjusted by the max PFN mask) instead of zero. A zeroed entry is ok
because the page at physical address 0 is reserved early in boot
specifically to mitigate L1TF, so explicitly exempt them from the
inversion when reading the PFN.
Manifested as an unexpected mprotect(..., PROT_NONE) failure when called
on a VMA that has VM_PFNMAP and was mmap'd to as something other than
PROT_NONE but never used. mprotect() sends the PROT_NONE request down
prot_none_walk(), which walks the PTEs to check the PFNs.
prot_none_pte_entry() gets the bogus PFN from pte_pfn() and returns
-EACCES because it thinks mprotect() is trying to adjust a high MMIO
address.
[ This is a very modified version of Sean's original patch, but all
credit goes to Sean for doing this and also pointing out that
sometimes the __pte_needs_invert() function only gets the protection
bits, not the full eventual pte. But zero remains special even in
just protection bits, so that's ok. - Linus ]

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
