The smp_wmb() which is in the __pte_alloc() is used to ensure all ptes setup is visible before the pte is made visible to other CPUs by being put into page tables. We only need this when the pte is actually populated, so move it to pmd_install(). __pte_alloc_kernel(), __p4d_alloc(), __pud_alloc() and __pmd_alloc() are similar to this case. We can also defer smp_wmb() to the place where the pmd entry is really populated by preallocated pte. There are two kinds of user of preallocated pte, one is filemap & finish_fault(), another is THP. The former does not need another smp_wmb() because the smp_wmb() has been done by pmd_install(). Fortunately, the latter also does not need another smp_wmb() because there is already a smp_wmb() before populating the new pte when the THP uses a preallocated pte to split a huge pmd.

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.
