This patch-set fixes two issues found in PAT when mremap() is used on a VM_PFNMAP range.
Patch 1/2 fixes an issue for mremap() with MREMAP_FIXED, which moves a pfnmap from old vma to new vma. untrack_pfn_moved() is added to clear VM_PAT from old vma. Patch 2/2 fixes an issue for mremap() with a shrinking map size. The free_memtype() path is changed to support this mremap case in addition to the regular munmap case. Note, using mremap() with an expanded map size is not a valid case since VM_DONTEXPAND is set along with VM_PFNMAP. v2: - Add an explicit call in the mremap code which clears the PAT flag. (Thomas Gleixner) - Add comment to explain how memtype_rb_match() is used for shrinking case.
