From: Hugh Dickins <hughd@google.com> stable inclusion from linux-4.19.142 commit 17c08ee00b59067ed0537d91fd89873b3bba6491 -------------------------------- [ Upstream commit bbe98f9cadff58cdd6a4acaeba0efa8565dabe65 ] Move collapse_huge_page()'s mmget_still_valid() check into khugepaged_test_exit() itself. collapse_huge_page() is used for anon THP only, and earned its mmget_still_valid() check because it inserts a huge pmd entry in place of the page table's pmd entry; whereas collapse_file()'s retract_page_tables() or collapse_pte_mapped_thp() merely clears the page table's pmd entry. But core dumping without mmap lock must have been as open to mistaking a racily cleared pmd entry for a page table at physical page 0, as exit_mmap() was. And we certainly have no interest in mapping as a THP once dumping core.
