[PATCH v2 1/6] mm/balloon_compaction: ignore anonymous pages

From: Konstantin Khlebnikov
Date: Sat Aug 30 2014 - 12:42:40 EST


From: Konstantin Khlebnikov <k.khlebnikov@xxxxxxxxxxx>

Sasha Levin reported KASAN splash inside isolate_migratepages_range().
Problem is in function __is_movable_balloon_page() which tests AS_BALLOON_MAP
in page->mapping->flags. This function has no protection against anonymous
pages. As result it tried to check address space flags in inside anon-vma.
