Hugh Dickins bd092a0f19 mm/thp: make is_huge_zero_pmd() safe and quicker
commit 3b77e8c8cde581dadab9a0f1543a347e24315f11 upstream.

Most callers of is_huge_zero_pmd() supply a pmd already verified
present; but a few (notably zap_huge_pmd()) do not - it might be a pmd
migration entry, in which the pfn is encoded differently from a present
pmd: which might pass the is_huge_zero_pmd() test (though not on x86,
since L1TF forced us to protect against that); or perhaps even crash in
pmd_page() applied to a swap-like entry.

Make it safe by adding pmd_present() check into is_huge_zero_pmd()
itself; and make it quicker by saving huge_zero_pfn, so that
is_huge_zero_pmd() will not need to do that pmd_page() lookup each time.

__split_huge_pmd_locked() checked pmd_trans_huge() before: that worked,
but is unnecessary now that is_huge_zero_pmd() checks present.

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.
