commit 09a26e832705fdb7a9484495b71a05e0bbc65207 upstream.
Guillaume Morin reported hitting the following WARNING followed by GPF or
NULL pointer deference either in cgroups_destroy or in the kill_css path.:
percpu ref (css_release) <= 0 (-1) after switching to atomic

Upon further examination, it was discovered that the css structure was
associated with hugetlb reservations.
For private hugetlb mappings the vma points to a reserve map that
contains a pointer to the css. At mmap time, reservations are set up
and a reference to the css is taken. This reference is dropped in the
vma close operation; hugetlb_vm_op_close. However, if a vma is split no
additional reference to the css is taken yet hugetlb_vm_op_close will be
called twice for the split vma resulting in an underflow.
Fix by taking another reference in hugetlb_vm_op_open. Note that the
reference is only taken for the owner of the reserve map. In the more
common fork case, the pointer to the reserve map is cleared for
non-owning vmas.

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.
