[PATCH 4.18 018/150] arm64: hugetlb: Fix handling of young ptes

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Fri Nov 02 2018 - 14:38:35 EST


4.18-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

[ Upstream commit 469ed9d823b7d240d6b9574f061ded7c3834c167 ]

In the contiguous bit hugetlb break-before-make code we assume that all
hugetlb pages are young.

In fact, remove_migration_pte is able to place an old hugetlb pte so
this assumption is not valid.

This patch fixes the contiguous hugetlb scanning code to preserve young
ptes.

Fixes: d8bdcff28764 ("arm64: hugetlb: Add break-before-make logic for contiguous entries")
