[PATCH 16/16] mm: sanitize page->mapping for tail pages

From: Kirill A. Shutemov
Date: Thu Mar 19 2015 - 13:13:45 EST


We don't define meaning of page->mapping for tail pages. Currently it's
always NULL, which can be inconsistent with head page and potentially
lead to problems.

Let's poison the pointer to catch all illigal uses.

page_rmapping() and page_mapping() are changed to look on head page.

The only illigal use I've catched so far is __GPF_COMP pages from sound
subsystem, mapped with PTEs. do_shared_fault() is changed to use
page_rmapping() instead of direct access to fault_page->mapping.
