[PATCH v8 12/23] mm/hugetlb: Hook page faults for uffd write protection

From: Peter Xu
Date: Mon Apr 04 2022 - 22:42:10 EST


Hook up hugetlbfs_fault() with the capability to handle userfaultfd-wp faults.

We do this slightly earlier than hugetlb_cow() so that we can avoid taking some
extra locks that we definitely don't need.
