Matthew Wilcox (Oracle) 2431b5f265 mm: turn folio_test_hugetlb into a PageType
commit d99e3140a4 upstream.

The current folio_test_hugetlb() can be fooled by a concurrent folio split
into returning true for a folio which has never belonged to hugetlbfs.
This can't happen if the caller holds a refcount on it, but we have a few
places (memory-failure, compaction, procfs) which do not and should not
take a speculative reference.

Since hugetlb pages do not use individual page mapcounts (they are always
fully mapped and use the entire_mapcount field to record the number of
mappings), the PageType field is available now that page_mapcount()
ignores the value in this field.

In compaction and with CONFIG_DEBUG_VM enabled, the current implementation
can result in an oops, as reported by Luis. This happens since 9c5ccf2db0
("mm: remove HUGETLB_PAGE_DTOR") effectively added some VM_BUG_ON() checks
in the PageHuge() testing path.

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.
