Aneesh Kumar K.V 97113eb39f mm/mremap: hold the rmap lock in write mode when moving page table entries. 
To avoid a race between rmap walk and mremap, mremap does
take_rmap_locks().  The lock was taken to ensure that rmap walk don't miss
a page table entry due to PTE moves via move_pagetables().  The kernel
does further optimization of this lock such that if we are going to find
the newly added vma after the old vma, the rmap lock is not taken.  This
is because rmap walk would find the vmas in the same order and if we don't
find the page table attached to older vma we would find it with the new
vma which we would iterate later.

As explained in commit eb66ae0308 ("mremap: properly flush TLB before
releasing the page") mremap is special in that it doesn't take ownership
of the page.  The optimized version for PUD/PMD aligned mremap also
doesn't hold the ptl lock.  This can result in stale TLB entries as show
below.

This patch updates the rmap locking requirement in mremap to handle the race condition
explained below with optimized mremap::

Optmized PMD move

    CPU 1                           CPU 2                                   CPU 3

    mremap(old_addr, new_addr)      page_shrinker/try_to_unmap_one

    mmap_write_lock_killable()

                                    addr = old_addr
                                    lock(pte_ptl)
    lock(pmd_ptl)
    pmd = *old_pmd
    pmd_clear(old_pmd)
    flush_tlb_range(old_addr)

    *new_pmd = pmd
                                                                            *new_addr = 10; and fills
                                                                            TLB with new addr
                                                                            and old pfn

    unlock(pmd_ptl)
                                    ptep_clear_flush()
                                    old pfn is free.
                                                                            Stale TLB entry

Optimized PUD move also suffers from a similar race.  Both the above race
condition can be fixed if we force mremap path to take rmap lock.

README 

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.
