mm: mlock: avoid increase mm->locked_vm on mlock() when already mlock2(,MLOCK_ONFAULT)
When one vma was with flag VM_LOCKED|VM_LOCKONFAULT (by invoking mlock2(,MLOCK_ONFAULT)), it can again be populated with mlock() with VM_LOCKED flag only. There is a hole in mlock_fixup() which increase mm->locked_vm twice even the two operations are on the same vma and both with VM_LOCKED flags. The issue can be reproduced by following code: mlock2(p, 1024 * 64, MLOCK_ONFAULT); //VM_LOCKED|VM_LOCKONFAULT mlock(p, 1024 * 64); //VM_LOCKED Then check the increase VmLck field in /proc/pid/status(to 128k). When vma is set with different vm_flags, and the new vm_flags is with VM_LOCKED, it is not necessarily be a "new locked" vma. This patch corrects this bug by prevent mm->locked_vm from increment when old vm_flags is already VM_LOCKED.
