Upon further examination, it was discovered that the css structure was
associated with hugetlb reservations.
For private hugetlb mappings the vma points to a reserve map that
contains a pointer to the css. At mmap time, reservations are set up
and a reference to the css is taken. This reference is dropped in the
vma close operation; hugetlb_vm_op_close. However, if a vma is split no
additional reference to the css is taken yet hugetlb_vm_op_close will be
called twice for the split vma resulting in an underflow.
Fix by taking another reference in hugetlb_vm_op_open. Note that the
reference is only taken for the owner of the reserve map. In the more
common fork case, the pointer to the reserve map is cleared for
non-owning vmas.
