Matthew Wilcox (Oracle) 5d74b2ab2c mm: make lock_folio_maybe_drop_mmap() VMA lock aware
Patch series "Handle more faults under the VMA lock", v2.

At this point, we're handling the majority of file-backed page faults
under the VMA lock, using the ->map_pages entry point.  This patch set
attempts to expand that for the following siutations:

 - We have to do a read.  This could be because we've hit the point in
   the readahead window where we need to kick off the next readahead,
   or because the page is simply not present in cache.
 - We're handling a write fault.  Most applications don't do I/O by writes
   to shared mmaps for very good reasons, but some do, and it'd be nice
   to not make that slow unnecessarily.
 - We're doing a COW of a private mapping (both PTE already present
   and PTE not-present).  These are two different codepaths and I handle
   both of them in this patch set.

There is no support in this patch set for drivers to mark themselves as
being VMA lock friendly; they could implement the ->map_pages
vm_operation, but if they do, they would be the first.  This is probably
something we want to change at some point in the future, and I've marked
where to make that change in the code.

There is very little performance change in the benchmarks we've run;
mostly because the vast majority of page faults are handled through the
other paths.  I still think this patch series is useful for workloads that
may take these paths more often, and just for cleaning up the fault path
in general (it's now clearer why we have to retry in these cases).


This patch (of 6):

Drop the VMA lock instead of the mmap_lock if that's the one which
is held.
