4.16-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Joerg Roedel <j...@8bytes.org> [ Upstream commit e3e288121408c3abeed5af60b87b95c847143845 ] The pmd_set_huge() and pud_set_huge() functions are used from the generic ioremap() code to establish large mappings where this is possible. But the generic ioremap() code does not check whether the PMD/PUD entries are already populated with a non-leaf entry, so that any page-table pages these entries point to will be lost. Further, on x86-32 with SHARED_KERNEL_PMD=0, this causes a BUG_ON() in vmalloc_sync_one() when PMD entries are synced from swapper_pg_dir to the current page-table. This happens because the PMD entry from swapper_pg_dir was promoted to a huge-page entry while the current PGD still contains the non-leaf entry. Because both entries are present and point to a different page, the BUG_ON() triggers. This was actually triggered with pti-x32 enabled in a KVM virtual machine by the graphics driver. A real and better fix for that would be to improve the page-table handling in the generic ioremap() code. But that is out-of-scope for this patch-set and left for later work. Reported-by: David H.
