Patch series "mm/hugetlb: More fixes around uffd-wp vs fork() / RO pins",
v2.
This patch (of 6):
There're a bunch of things that were wrong:
- Reading uffd-wp bit from a swap entry should use pte_swp_uffd_wp()
rather than huge_pte_uffd_wp().
- When copying over a pte, we should drop uffd-wp bit when
!EVENT_FORK (aka, when !userfaultfd_wp(dst_vma)).
- When doing early CoW for private hugetlb (e.g. when the parent page was
pinned), uffd-wp bit should be properly carried over if necessary.
No bug reported probably because most people do not even care about these
corner cases, but they are still bugs and can be exposed by the recent unit
tests introduced, so fix all of them in one shot.

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.
