Patch series "mm, huge page: Copy target sub-page last when copy huge
page", v2.
Huge page helps to reduce TLB miss rate, but it has higher cache
footprint, sometimes this may cause some issue. For example, when
copying huge page on x86_64 platform, the cache footprint is 4M. But on
a Xeon E5 v3 2699 CPU, there are 18 cores, 36 threads, and only 45M LLC
(last level cache). That is, in average, there are 2.5M LLC for each
core and 1.25M LLC for each thread.
If the cache contention is heavy when copying the huge page, and we copy
the huge page from the begin to the end, it is possible that the begin
of huge page is evicted from the cache after we finishing copying the
end of the huge page. And it is possible for the application to access
the begin of the huge page after copying the huge page.
In c79b57e462b5d ("mm: hugetlb: clear target sub-page last when clearing
huge page"), to keep the cache lines of the target subpage hot, the
order to clear the subpages in the huge page in clear_huge_page() is
changed to clearing the subpage which is furthest from the target
subpage firstly, and the target subpage last. The similar order
changing helps huge page copying too. That is implemented in this
patchset.
The patchset is a generic optimization which should benefit quite some
workloads, not for a specific use case. To demonstrate the performance
benefit of the patchset, we have tested it with vm-scalability run on
transparent huge page.
With this patchset, the throughput increases ~16.6% in vm-scalability
anon-cow-seq test case with 36 processes on a 2 socket Xeon E5 v3 2699
system (36 cores, 72 threads). The test case set
/sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/enabled to be always, mmap() a big
anonymous memory area and populate it, then forked 36 child processes,
each writes to the anonymous memory area from the begin to the end, so
cause copy on write. For each child process, other child processes
could be seen as other workloads which generate heavy cache pressure.
At the same time, the IPC (instruction per cycle) increased from 0.63 to
0.78, and the time spent in user space is reduced ~7.2%.
This patch (of 4):
In c79b57e462b5d ("mm: hugetlb: clear target sub-page last when clearing
huge page"), to keep the cache lines of the target subpage hot, the
order to clear the subpages in the huge page in clear_huge_page() is
changed to clearing the subpage which is furthest from the target
subpage firstly, and the target subpage last. This optimization could
be applied to copying huge page too with the same order algorithm. To
avoid code duplication and reduce maintenance overhead, in this patch,
the order algorithm is moved out of clear_huge_page() into a separate
function: process_huge_page(). So that we can use it for copying huge
page too.
This will change the direct calls to clear_user_highpage() into the
indirect calls. But with the proper inline support of the compilers,
the indirect call will be optimized to be the direct call. Our tests
show no performance change with the patch.
This patch is a code cleanup without functionality change.

Since commit eca56ff906bd ("mm, shmem: add internal shmem resident
memory accounting"), MM_SHMEMPAGES is added to separate the shmem
accounting from regular files. So, all shmem pages should be accounted
to MM_SHMEMPAGES instead of MM_FILEPAGES.
And, normal 4K shmem pages have been accounted to MM_SHMEMPAGES, so
shmem thp pages should be not treated differently. Account them to
MM_SHMEMPAGES via mm_counter_file() since shmem pages are swap backed to
keep consistent with normal 4K shmem pages.
This will not change the rss counter of processes since shmem pages are
still a part of it.
The /proc/pid/status and /proc/pid/statm counters will however be more
accurate wrt shmem usage, as originally intended. And as eca56ff906bd
("mm, shmem: add internal shmem resident memory accounting") mentioned,
oom also could report more accurate "shmem-rss".

This patch is reworked from an earlier patch that Dan has posted:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/10131727/
VM_MIXEDMAP is used by dax to direct mm paths like vm_normal_page() that
the memory page it is dealing with is not typical memory from the linear
map. The get_user_pages_fast() path, since it does not resolve the vma,
is already using {pte,pmd}_devmap() as a stand-in for VM_MIXEDMAP, so we
use that as a VM_MIXEDMAP replacement in some locations. In the cases
where there is no pte to consult we fallback to using vma_is_dax() to
detect the VM_MIXEDMAP special case.
Now that we have explicit driver pfn_t-flag opt-in/opt-out for
get_user_pages() support for DAX we can stop setting VM_MIXEDMAP. This
also means we no longer need to worry about safely manipulating vm_flags
in a future where we support dynamically changing the dax mode of a
file.
DAX should also now be supported with madvise_behavior(), vma_merge(),
and copy_page_range().
This patch has been tested against ndctl unit test. It has also been
tested against xfstests commit: 625515d using fake pmem created by
memmap and no additional issues have been observed.

Merge L1 Terminal Fault fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
"L1TF, aka L1 Terminal Fault, is yet another speculative hardware
engineering trainwreck. It's a hardware vulnerability which allows
unprivileged speculative access to data which is available in the
Level 1 Data Cache when the page table entry controlling the virtual
address, which is used for the access, has the Present bit cleared or
other reserved bits set.
If an instruction accesses a virtual address for which the relevant
page table entry (PTE) has the Present bit cleared or other reserved
bits set, then speculative execution ignores the invalid PTE and loads
the referenced data if it is present in the Level 1 Data Cache, as if
the page referenced by the address bits in the PTE was still present
and accessible.
While this is a purely speculative mechanism and the instruction will
raise a page fault when it is retired eventually, the pure act of
loading the data and making it available to other speculative
instructions opens up the opportunity for side channel attacks to
unprivileged malicious code, similar to the Meltdown attack.
While Meltdown breaks the user space to kernel space protection, L1TF
allows to attack any physical memory address in the system and the
attack works across all protection domains. It allows an attack of SGX
and also works from inside virtual machines because the speculation
bypasses the extended page table (EPT) protection mechanism.
The assoicated CVEs are: CVE-2018-3615, CVE-2018-3620, CVE-2018-3646
The mitigations provided by this pull request include:
- Host side protection by inverting the upper address bits of a non
present page table entry so the entry points to uncacheable memory.
- Hypervisor protection by flushing L1 Data Cache on VMENTER.
- SMT (HyperThreading) control knobs, which allow to 'turn off' SMT
by offlining the sibling CPU threads. The knobs are available on
the kernel command line and at runtime via sysfs
- Control knobs for the hypervisor mitigation, related to L1D flush
and SMT control. The knobs are available on the kernel command line
and at runtime via sysfs
- Extensive documentation about L1TF including various degrees of
mitigations.
Thanks to all people who have contributed to this in various ways -
patches, review, testing, backporting - and the fruitful, sometimes
heated, but at the end constructive discussions.
There is work in progress to provide other forms of mitigations, which
might be less horrible performance wise for a particular kind of
workloads, but this is not yet ready for consumption due to their
complexity and limitations"

Delete the old VM_BUG_ON_VMA() from zap_pmd_range(), which asserted
that mmap_sem must be held when splitting an "anonymous" vma there.
Whether that's still strictly true nowadays is not entirely clear,
but the danger of sometimes crashing on the BUG is now fairly clear.
Even with the new stricter rules for anonymous vma marking, the
condition it checks for can possible trigger. Commit 44960f2a7b63
("staging: ashmem: Fix SIGBUS crash when traversing mmaped ashmem
pages") is good, and originally I thought it was safe from that
VM_BUG_ON_VMA(), because the /dev/ashmem fd exposed to the user is
disconnected from the vm_file in the vma, and madvise(,,MADV_REMOVE)
insists on VM_SHARED.
But after I read John's earlier mail, drawing attention to the
vfs_fallocate() in there: I may be wrong, and I don't know if Android
has THP in the config anyway, but it looks to me like an
unmap_mapping_range() from ashmem's vfs_fallocate() could hit precisely
the VM_BUG_ON_VMA(), once it's vma_is_anonymous().

Andy discovered that speculative memory accesses while in lazy
TLB mode can crash a system, when a CPU tries to dereference a
speculative access using memory contents that used to be valid
page table memory, but have since been reused for something else
and point into la-la land.
The latter problem can be prevented in two ways. The first is to
always send a TLB shootdown IPI to CPUs in lazy TLB mode, while
the second one is to only send the TLB shootdown at page table
freeing time.
The second should result in fewer IPIs, since operationgs like
mprotect and madvise are very common with some workloads, but
do not involve page table freeing. Also, on munmap, batching
of page table freeing covers much larger ranges of virtual
memory than the batching of unmapped user pages.

Memory allocations can induce swapping via kswapd or direct reclaim. If
we are having IO done for us by kswapd and don't actually go into direct
reclaim we may never get scheduled for throttling. So instead check to
see if our cgroup is congested, and if so schedule the throttling.
Before we return to user space the throttling stuff will only throttle
if we actually required it.

For L1TF PROT_NONE mappings are protected by inverting the PFN in the page
table entry. This sets the high bits in the CPU's address space, thus
making sure to point to not point an unmapped entry to valid cached memory.
Some server system BIOSes put the MMIO mappings high up in the physical
address space. If such an high mapping was mapped to unprivileged users
they could attack low memory by setting such a mapping to PROT_NONE. This
could happen through a special device driver which is not access
protected. Normal /dev/mem is of course access protected.
To avoid this forbid PROT_NONE mappings or mprotect for high MMIO mappings.
Valid page mappings are allowed because the system is then unsafe anyways.
It's not expected that users commonly use PROT_NONE on MMIO. But to
minimize any impact this is only enforced if the mapping actually refers to
a high MMIO address (defined as the MAX_PA-1 bit being set), and also skip
the check for root.
For mmaps this is straight forward and can be handled in vm_insert_pfn and
in remap_pfn_range().
For mprotect it's a bit trickier. At the point where the actual PTEs are
accessed a lot of state has been changed and it would be difficult to undo
on an error. Since this is a uncommon case use a separate early page talk
walk pass for MMIO PROT_NONE mappings that checks for this condition
early. For non MMIO and non PROT_NONE there are no changes.

Currently the PTE special supports is turned on in per architecture
header files. Most of the time, it is defined in
arch/*/include/asm/pgtable.h depending or not on some other per
architecture static definition.
This patch introduce a new configuration variable to manage this
directly in the Kconfig files. It would later replace
__HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SPECIAL.
Here notes for some architecture where the definition of
__HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SPECIAL is not obvious:
arm
__HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SPECIAL which is currently defined in
arch/arm/include/asm/pgtable-3level.h which is included by
arch/arm/include/asm/pgtable.h when CONFIG_ARM_LPAE is set.
So select ARCH_HAS_PTE_SPECIAL if ARM_LPAE.
powerpc
__HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SPECIAL is defined in 2 files:
- arch/powerpc/include/asm/book3s/64/pgtable.h
- arch/powerpc/include/asm/pte-common.h
The first one is included if (PPC_BOOK3S & PPC64) while the second is
included in all the other cases.
So select ARCH_HAS_PTE_SPECIAL all the time.
sparc:
__HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SPECIAL is defined if defined(__sparc__) &&
defined(__arch64__) which are defined through the compiler in
sparc/Makefile if !SPARC32 which I assume to be if SPARC64.
So select ARCH_HAS_PTE_SPECIAL if SPARC64
There is no functional change introduced by this patch.

Use new return type vm_fault_t for fault handler. For now, this is just
documenting that the function returns a VM_FAULT value rather than an
errno. Once all instances are converted, vm_fault_t will become a
distinct type.
commit 1c8f422059ae ("mm: change return type to vm_fault_t")
There was an existing bug inside dax_load_hole() if vm_insert_mixed had
failed to allocate a page table, we'd return VM_FAULT_NOPAGE instead of
VM_FAULT_OOM. With new vmf_insert_mixed() this issue is addressed.
vm_insert_mixed_mkwrite has inefficiency when it returns an error value,
driver has to convert it to vm_fault_t type. With new
vmf_insert_mixed_mkwrite() this limitation will be addressed.

When I see recent change of swap readahead, I am very unhappy about
current code structure which diverges two swap readahead algorithm in
do_swap_page. This patch is to clean it up.
Main motivation is that fault handler doesn't need to be aware of
readahead algorithms but just should call swapin_readahead.
As first step, this patch cleans up a little bit but not perfect (I just
separate for review easier) so next patch will make the goal complete.

If a processor supports special metadata for a page, for example ADI
version tags on SPARC M7, this metadata must be saved when the page is
swapped out. The same metadata must be restored when the page is swapped
back in. This patch adds two new architecture specific functions -
arch_do_swap_page() to be called when a page is swapped in, and
arch_unmap_one() to be called when a page is being unmapped for swap
out. These architecture hooks allow page metadata to be saved if the
architecture supports it.

We get a warning about some slow configurations in randconfig kernels:
mm/memory.c:83:2: error: #warning Unfortunate NUMA and NUMA Balancing config, growing page-frame for last_cpupid. [-Werror=cpp]
The warning is reasonable by itself, but gets in the way of randconfig
build testing, so I'm hiding it whenever CONFIG_COMPILE_TEST is set.
The warning was added in 2013 in commit 75980e97dacc ("mm: fold
page->_last_nid into page->flags where possible").

Pull libnvdimm updates from Ross Zwisler:
- Require struct page by default for filesystem DAX to remove a number
of surprising failure cases. This includes failures with direct I/O,
gdb and fork(2).
- Add support for the new Platform Capabilities Structure added to the
NFIT in ACPI 6.2a. This new table tells us whether the platform
supports flushing of CPU and memory controller caches on unexpected
power loss events.
- Revamp vmem_altmap and dev_pagemap handling to clean up code and
better support future future PCI P2P uses.
- Deprecate the ND_IOCTL_SMART_THRESHOLD command whose payload has
become out-of-sync with recent versions of the NVDIMM_FAMILY_INTEL
spec, and instead rely on the generic ND_CMD_CALL approach used by
the two other IOCTL families, NVDIMM_FAMILY_{HPE,MSFT}.
- Enhance nfit_test so we can test some of the new things added in
version 1.6 of the DSM specification. This includes testing firmware
download and simulating the Last Shutdown State (LSS) status.

There are multiple comments surrounding do_fault_around that memtion
fault_around_pages() and fault_around_mask(), two routines that do not
exist. These comments should be reworded to reference
fault_around_bytes, the value which is used to determine how much
do_fault_around() will attempt to read when processing a fault.
These comments should have been updated when fault_around_pages() and
fault_around_mask() were removed in commit aecd6f44266c ("mm: close race

Several users of unmap_mapping_range() would prefer to express their
range in pages rather than bytes. Unfortuately, on a 32-bit kernel, you
have to remember to cast your page number to a 64-bit type before
shifting it, and four places in the current tree didn't remember to do
that. That's a sign of a bad interface.
Conveniently, unmap_mapping_range() actually converts from bytes into
pages, so hoist the guts of unmap_mapping_range() into a new function
unmap_mapping_pages() and convert the callers which want to use pages.

In support of removing the VM_MIXEDMAP indication from DAX VMAs,
introduce pfn_t_special() for drivers to indicate that _PAGE_SPECIAL
should be used for DAX ptes. This also helps identify drivers like
dccssblk that only want to use DAX in a read-only fashion without
get_user_pages() support.
Ideally we could delete axonram and dcssblk DAX support, but if we need
to keep it better make it explicit that axonram and dcssblk only support
a sub-set of DAX due to missing _PAGE_DEVMAP support.

James reported a bug in swap paging-in from his testing. It is that
do_swap_page doesn't release locked page so system hang-up happens due
to a deadlock on PG_locked.
It was introduced by 0bcac06f27d7 ("mm, swap: skip swapcache for swapin
of synchronous device") because I missed swap cache hit places to update
swapcache variable to work well with other logics against swapcache in
do_swap_page.
This patch fixes it.

This reverts commits 5c9d2d5c269c, c7da82b894e9, and e7fe7b5cae90.
We'll probably need to revisit this, but basically we should not
complicate the get_user_pages_fast() case, and checking the actual page
table protection key bits will require more care anyway, since the
protection keys depend on the exact state of the VM in question.
Particularly when doing a "remote" page lookup (ie in somebody elses VM,
not your own), you need to be much more careful than this was. Dave
Hansen says:
"So, the underlying bug here is that we now a get_user_pages_remote()
and then go ahead and do the p*_access_permitted() checks against the
current PKRU. This was introduced recently with the addition of the
new p??_access_permitted() calls.
We have checks in the VMA path for the "remote" gups and we avoid
consulting PKRU for them. This got missed in the pkeys selftests
because I did a ptrace read, but not a *write*. I also didn't
explicitly test it against something where a COW needed to be done"
It's also not entirely clear that it makes sense to check the protection
key bits at this level at all. But one possible eventual solution is to
make the get_user_pages_fast() case just abort if it sees protection key
bits set, which makes us fall back to the regular get_user_pages() case,
which then has a vma and can do the check there if we want to.
We'll see.
Somewhat related to this all: what we _do_ want to do some day is to
check the PAGE_USER bit - it should obviously always be set for user
pages, but it would be a good check to have back. Because we have no
generic way to test for it, we lost it as part of moving over from the
architecture-specific x86 GUP implementation to the generic one in
commit e585513b76f7 ("x86/mm/gup: Switch GUP to the generic
get_user_page_fast() implementation").

With gcc 4.1.2:
mm/memory.o: In function `wp_huge_pmd':
memory.c:(.text+0x9b4): undefined reference to `do_huge_pmd_wp_page'
Interestingly, wp_huge_pmd() is emitted in the assembler output, but
never called.
Apparently replacing the call to pmd_write() in __handle_mm_fault() by a
call to the more complex pmd_access_permitted() reduced the ability of
the compiler to remove unused code.
Fix this by marking wp_huge_pmd() inline, like was done in commit
91a90140f998 ("mm/memory.c: mark create_huge_pmd() inline to prevent
build failure") for a similar problem.

The 'access_permitted' helper is used in the gup-fast path and goes
beyond the simple _PAGE_RW check to also:
- validate that the mapping is writable from a protection keys
standpoint
- validate that the pte has _PAGE_USER set since all fault paths where
pte_write is must be referencing user-memory.

This reverts commit 152e93af3cfe2d29d8136cc0a02a8612507136ee.
It was a nice cleanup in theory, but as Nicolai Stange points out, we do
need to make the page dirty for the copy-on-write case even when we
didn't end up making it writable, since the dirty bit is what we use to
check that we've gone through a COW cycle.

Currently we make page table entries dirty all the time regardless of
access type and don't even consider if the mapping is write-protected.
The reasoning is that we don't really need dirty tracking on THP and
making the entry dirty upfront may save some time on first write to the
page.
Unfortunately, such approach may result in false-positive
can_follow_write_pmd() for huge zero page or read-only shmem file.
Let's only make page dirty only if we about to write to the page anyway
(as we do for small pages).
I've restructured the code to make entry dirty inside
maybe_p[mu]d_mkwrite(). It also takes into account if the vma is
write-protected.

The preempt count check on print_vma_addr has been added by commit
e8bff74afbdb ("x86: fix "BUG: sleeping function called from invalid
context" in print_vma_addr()") and it relied on the elevated preempt
count from preempt_conditional_sti because preempt_count check doesn't
work on non preemptive kernels by default.
The code has evolved though and commit d99e1bd175f4 ("x86/entry/traps:
Refactor preemption and interrupt flag handling") has replaced
preempt_conditional_sti by an explicit preempt_disable which is noop on
!PREEMPT so the check in print_vma_addr is broken.
Fix the issue by using trylock on mmap_sem rather than chacking the
preempt count. The allocation we are relying on has to be GFP_NOWAIT as
well. There is a chance that we won't dump the vma state if the lock is
contended or the memory short but this is acceptable outcome and much
less fragile than the not working preemption check or tricks around it.

On a machine with 5-level paging support a process can allocate
significant amount of memory and stay unnoticed by oom-killer and memory
cgroup. The trick is to allocate a lot of PUD page tables. We don't
account PUD page tables, only PMD and PTE.
We already addressed the same issue for PMD page tables, see commit
dc6c9a35b66b ("mm: account pmd page tables to the process").
Introduction of 5-level paging brings the same issue for PUD page
tables.
The patch expands accounting to PUD level.

This is an optimization patch that only affect mmu_notifier users which
rely on the invalidate_range() callback. This patch avoids calling that
callback twice in a row from inside __mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_end
Existing pattern (before this patch):
mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start()
pte/pmd/pud_clear_flush_notify()
mmu_notifier_invalidate_range()
mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_end()
mmu_notifier_invalidate_range()
New pattern (after this patch):
mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start()
pte/pmd/pud_clear_flush_notify()
mmu_notifier_invalidate_range()
mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_only_end()
We call the invalidate_range callback after clearing the page table
under the page table lock and we skip the call to invalidate_range
inside the __mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_end() function.

When SWP_SYNCHRONOUS_IO swapped-in pages are shared by several
processes, it can cause unnecessary memory wastage by skipping swap
cache. Because, with swapin fault by read, they could share a page if
the page were in swap cache. Thus, it avoids allocating same content
new pages.
This patch makes the swapcache skipping work only if the swap pte is
non-sharable.

With fast swap storage, the platforms want to use swap more aggressively
and swap-in is crucial to application latency.
The rw_page() based synchronous devices like zram, pmem and btt are such
fast storage. When I profile swapin performance with zram lz4
decompress test, S/W overhead is more than 70%. Maybe, it would be
bigger in nvdimm.
This patch aims to reduce swap-in latency by skipping swapcache if the
swap device is synchronous device like rw_page based device. It
enhances 45% my swapin test(5G sequential swapin, no readahead, from
2.41sec to 1.64sec).

For several reasons, it is desirable to use {READ,WRITE}_ONCE() in
preference to ACCESS_ONCE(), and new code is expected to use one of the
former. So far, there's been no reason to change most existing uses of
ACCESS_ONCE(), as these aren't currently harmful.
However, for some features it is necessary to instrument reads and
writes separately, which is not possible with ACCESS_ONCE(). This
distinction is critical to correct operation.
It's possible to transform the bulk of kernel code using the Coccinelle
script below. However, this doesn't handle comments, leaving references
to ACCESS_ONCE() instances which have been removed. As a preparatory
step, this patch converts the mm code and comments to use
{READ,WRITE}_ONCE() consistently.

Allow interval trees to quickly check for overlaps to avoid unnecesary
tree lookups in interval_tree_iter_first().
As of this patch, all interval tree flavors will require using a
'rb_root_cached' such that we can have the leftmost node easily
available. While most users will make use of this feature, those with
special functions (in addition to the generic insert, delete, search
calls) will avoid using the cached option as they can do funky things
with insertions -- for example, vma_interval_tree_insert_after().

Seen while reading the code, in handle_mm_fault(), in the case
arch_vma_access_permitted() is failing the call to
mem_cgroup_oom_disable() is not made.
To fix that, move the call to mem_cgroup_oom_enable() after calling
arch_vma_access_permitted() as it should not have entered the memcg OOM.

Platform with advance system bus (like CAPI or CCIX) allow device memory
to be accessible from CPU in a cache coherent fashion. Add a new type of
ZONE_DEVICE to represent such memory. The use case are the same as for
the un-addressable device memory but without all the corners cases.

HMM (heterogeneous memory management) need struct page to support
migration from system main memory to device memory. Reasons for HMM and
migration to device memory is explained with HMM core patch.
This patch deals with device memory that is un-addressable memory (ie CPU
can not access it). Hence we do not want those struct page to be manage
like regular memory. That is why we extend ZONE_DEVICE to support
different types of memory.
A persistent memory type is define for existing user of ZONE_DEVICE and a
new device un-addressable type is added for the un-addressable memory
type. There is a clear separation between what is expected from each
memory type and existing user of ZONE_DEVICE are un-affected by new
requirement and new use of the un-addressable type. All specific code
path are protect with test against the memory type.
Because memory is un-addressable we use a new special swap type for when a
page is migrated to device memory (this reduces the number of maximum swap
file).
The main two additions beside memory type to ZONE_DEVICE is two callbacks.
First one, page_free() is call whenever page refcount reach 1 (which
means the page is free as ZONE_DEVICE page never reach a refcount of 0).
This allow device driver to manage its memory and associated struct page.
The second callback page_fault() happens when there is a CPU access to an
address that is back by a device page (which are un-addressable by the
CPU). This callback is responsible to migrate the page back to system
main memory. Device driver can not block migration back to system memory,
HMM make sure that such page can not be pin into device memory.
If device is in some error condition and can not migrate memory back then
a CPU page fault to device memory should end with SIGBUS.

When THP migration is being used, memory management code needs to handle
pmd migration entries properly. This patch uses !pmd_present() or
is_swap_pmd() (depending on whether pmd_none() needs separate code or
not) to check pmd migration entries at the places where a pmd entry is
present.
Since pmd-related code uses split_huge_page(), split_huge_pmd(),
pmd_trans_huge(), pmd_trans_unstable(), or
pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad(), this patch:
1. adds pmd migration entry split code in split_huge_pmd(),
2. takes care of pmd migration entries whenever pmd_trans_huge() is present,
3. makes pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad() pmd migration entry aware.
Since split_huge_page() uses split_huge_pmd() and pmd_trans_unstable()
is equivalent to pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad(), we do not change
them.
Until this commit, a pmd entry should be:
1. pointing to a pte page,
2. is_swap_pmd(),
3. pmd_trans_huge(),
4. pmd_devmap(), or
5. pmd_none().
