[ 31.221911] BUG: Bad rss-counter state mm:(ptrval) type:MM_FILEPAGES val:33
[ 31.229362] BUG: Bad rss-counter state mm:(ptrval) type:MM_ANONPAGES val:5
This fault is due to hugetlb_free_pgd_range() freeing page tables
that are also used by regular pages.
As explain in the comment at the beginning of
hugetlb_free_pgd_range(), the verification done in free_pgd_range()
on floor and ceiling is not done here, which means
hugetlb_free_pte_range() can free outside the expected range.
As the verification cannot be done in hugetlb_free_pgd_range(), it
must be done in hugetlb_free_pte_range().

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
