mm: Close races between THP migration and PMD numa clearing
THP migration uses the page lock to guard against parallel allocations but there are cases like this still open Task A Task B --------------------- --------------------- do_huge_pmd_numa_page do_huge_pmd_numa_page lock_page mpol_misplaced == -1 unlock_page goto clear_pmdnuma lock_page mpol_misplaced == 2 migrate_misplaced_transhuge pmd = pmd_mknonnuma set_pmd_at During hours of testing, one crashed with weird errors and while I have no direct evidence, I suspect something like the race above happened. This patch extends the page lock to being held until the pmd_numa is cleared to prevent migration starting in parallel while the pmd_numa is being cleared. It also flushes the old pmd entry and orders pagetable insertion before rmap insertion.
