commit 7ffddd499ba6122b1a07828f023d1d67629aa017 upstream.
There is a race condition between __free_huge_page()
and dissolve_free_huge_page().
CPU0: CPU1:
// page_count(page) == 1
put_page(page)
__free_huge_page(page)
dissolve_free_huge_page(page)
spin_lock(&hugetlb_lock)
// PageHuge(page) && !page_count(page)
update_and_free_page(page)
// page is freed to the buddy
spin_unlock(&hugetlb_lock)
spin_lock(&hugetlb_lock)
clear_page_huge_active(page)
enqueue_huge_page(page)
// It is wrong, the page is already freed
spin_unlock(&hugetlb_lock)
The race window is between put_page() and dissolve_free_huge_page().
We should make sure that the page is already on the free list when it is
dissolved.
As a result __free_huge_page would corrupt page(s) already in the buddy
allocator.

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.
