[PATCH v2] hugetlb: don't delete vma_lock in hugetlb MADV_DONTNEED processing

[Mike Kravetz]

madvise(MADV_DONTNEED) ends up calling zap_page_range() to clear the
page tables associated with the address range.  For hugetlb vmas,
zap_page_range will call __unmap_hugepage_range_final.  However,
__unmap_hugepage_range_final assumes the passed vma is about to be
removed and deletes the vma_lock to prevent pmd sharing as the vma is
on the way out.  In the case of madvise(MADV_DONTNEED) the vma remains,
but the missing vma_lock prevents pmd sharing and could potentially
lead to issues with truncation/fault races.

This issue was originally reported here [1] as a BUG triggered in
page_try_dup_anon_rmap.  Prior to the introduction of the hugetlb
vma_lock, __unmap_hugepage_range_final cleared the VM_MAYSHARE flag to
prevent pmd sharing.  Subsequent faults on this vma were confused as
VM_MAYSHARE indicates a sharable vma, but was not set so page_mapping
was not set in new pages added to the page table.  This resulted in
pages that appeared anonymous in a VM_SHARED vma and triggered the BUG.

Create a new routine clear_hugetlb_page_range() that can be called from
madvise(MADV_DONTNEED) for hugetlb vmas.  It has the same setup as
zap_page_range, but does not delete the vma_lock.
