mm/rmap: use huge_ptep_get() in try_to_unmap_one()
Patch series "Fix incorrect access of hugetlb pte entries", v3.
There are various places which use ptep_get() to get the pte entry
corresponding to a hugetlb folio. Some arches (like s390) have special
handling to compute the pteval, so they provide huge_ptep_get(). Use this
helper consistently.
Additionally, some code paths may provide huge_ptep_get with an unaligned
address. This is a problem on arm64 (I checked other arches and it looks
fine for them), which is fixed in patch 1. The fix is made to be
backport-friendly: the cleaner fix would be to perhaps pass the hstate to
huge_ptep_get() - that is wider churn and we can do that later.
This patch (of 5):
try_to_unmap_one() handles hugetlb folios when memory failure needs to
replace a poisoned hugetlb mapping with a hwpoison entry. In that case
page_vma_mapped_walk() returns the pte pointer to the hugetlb folio in
pvmw.pte, but the code reads it with ptep_get().
On arches which provide their own huge_ptep_get() to dereference a huge
pte pointer, accessing via ptep_get() would cause pte_pfn(), pte_present()
etc to misbehave.
It is not clear whether this has a trivially visible effect to userspace.
Just use huge_ptep_get() for dereferencing a huge pte pointer.
