This fixes a bug in madvise() where if you'd try to soft offline a hugepage via madvise(), while walking the address range you'd end up, using the wrong page offset due to attempting to get the compound order of a former but presently not compound page, due to dissolving the huge page (since commit c3114a84f7f9: "mm: hugetlb: soft-offline: dissolve source hugepage after successful migration"). As a result I ended up with all my free pages except one being offlined.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
