[PATCH 1/9] mm: khugepaged: close use-after-free race during shmem collapsing

From: Johannes Weiner
Date: Thu Nov 17 2016 - 14:12:14 EST


When a radix tree iteration drops the tree lock, another thread might
swoop in and free the node holding the current slot. The iteration
needs to do another tree lookup from the current index to continue.

[kirill.shutemov@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx: re-lookup for replacement]
Fixes: f3f0e1d2150b ("khugepaged: add support of collapse for tmpfs/shmem pages")
