[PATCH v2 0/5] mm/vmalloc: make the mapping functions undo their partial mappings

[Hao Ge]

__vmap_pages_range_noflush() and friends can install some PTEs before
failing and leave them mapped, and the kernel callers do not agree on
who cleans them up. pcpu_map_pages() and kmsan_ioremap_page_range()
roll back what they mapped before the failure, while
vm_module_tags_populate() and the __GFP_NOFAIL retry loop in
__vmalloc_area_node() rely on the mapping functions cleaning up and
do not call anything like vunmap_range() themselves. When the same
range is mapped again, the attempt hits the leftovers and fails, with
a BUG() in vmap_pte_range() for huge mappings and a warning on the
small-page path.

After discussing with Suren and Ulad [1], we move the rollback into the
mapping functions. A failed vmap leaves nothing mapped, and the
callers no longer clean up after it.

Patch 1 is the KMSAN part. The shadow and the origin of a range
are mapped by two separate calls, so the rollback there has to
cover both. Patch 2 is its disabled-KMSAN counterpart. Patch 3 adds
the rollback to __vmap_pages_range_noflush() and vmap_page_range().
Patches 4 and 5 drop the powerpc and percpu cleanups that are not
needed anymore.

Changes since v1:
 - Add patch 2. Sashiko reported that an empty range that hits patch 3's
   WARN_ON_ONCE() trips __vunmap_range_noflush()'s BUG_ON() through
   kmsan_vunmap_range_noflush() when kmsan=0. Patch 2 adds the
   kmsan_enabled check the unmap side was missing.
 - Pick up Reviewed-by tags from Suren and Ulad on patches 1, 4 and 5.
 - Add Cc: stable to patch 3.
