[PATCH v2] mm/migrate_device: Clear stale mapping after freeing swapcache
From: Arvind Yadav
Date: Fri Jul 24 2026 - 04:28:00 EST
__migrate_device_pages() reads the folio mapping before calling
folio_free_swap(). When folio_free_swap() succeeds, the folio is removed
from the swap cache, but the saved mapping still points to swap_space.
Passing the stale mapping to folio_migrate_mapping() makes it take the
mapped-folio path after the swapcache reference has been dropped. This can
cause an invalid swap_space lock access followed by a folio reference
count BUG.
Refresh the saved mapping after folio_free_swap() so the current folio
state is used during migration.
v2:
- Refresh the mapping using folio_mapping(), as suggested by Zi Yan.
