mainlining shenanigans
0e40de0338
Using xas_load() with a PMD-sized xa_state would work if either a
PMD-sized entry was present or a PTE sized entry was present in the
first 64 entries (of the 512 PTEs in a PMD on x86). If there was no
PTE in the first 64 entries, grab_mapping_entry() would believe there
were no entries present, allocate a PMD-sized entry and overwrite the
PTE in the page cache.
Use xas_find_conflict() instead which turns out to simplify
both get_unlocked_entry() and grab_mapping_entry(). Also remove a
WARN_ON_ONCE from grab_mapping_entry() as it will have already triggered
in get_unlocked_entry().

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.
