Naoya Horiguchi c9d398fa23 mm, hugetlb: use pte_present() instead of pmd_present() in follow_huge_pmd()
I found the race condition which triggers the following bug when
move_pages() and soft offline are called on a single hugetlb page
concurrently.

    Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception
    Kernel Offset: disabled

This bug is triggered when pmd_present() returns true for non-present
hugetlb, so fixing the present check in follow_huge_pmd() prevents it.
Using pmd_present() to determine present/non-present for hugetlb is not
correct, because pmd_present() checks multiple bits (not only
_PAGE_PRESENT) for historical reason and it can misjudge hugetlb state.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

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.
