Linus Torvalds 6cd06ab12d gup: make the stack expansion warning a bit more targeted
I added a warning about about GUP no longer expanding the stack in
commit a425ac5365 ("gup: add warning if some caller would seem to want
stack expansion"), but didn't really expect anybody to hit it.

And it's true that nobody seems to have hit a _real_ case yet, but we
certainly have a number of reports of false positives.  Which not only
causes extra noise in itself, but might also end up hiding any real
cases if they do exist.

So let's tighten up the warning condition, and replace the simplistic

	vma = find_vma(mm, start);
	if (vma && (start < vma->vm_start)) {
		WARN_ON_ONCE(vma->vm_flags & VM_GROWSDOWN);

with a

	vma = gup_vma_lookup(mm, start);

helper function which works otherwise like just "vma_lookup()", but with
some heuristics for when to warn about gup no longer causing stack
expansion.

In particular, don't just warn for "below the stack", but warn if it's
_just_ below the stack (with "just below" arbitrarily defined as 64kB,
because why not?).  And rate-limit it to at most once per hour, which
means that any false positives shouldn't completely hide subsequent
reports, but we won't be flooding the logs about it either.

The previous code triggered when some GUP user (chromium crashpad)
accessing past the end of the previous vma, for example.  That has never
expanded the stack, it just causes GUP to return early, and as such we
shouldn't be warning about it.

This is still going trigger the randomized testers, but to mitigate the
noise from that, use "dump_stack()" instead of "WARN_ON_ONCE()" to get
the kernel call chain.  We'll get the relevant information, but syzbot
shouldn't get too upset about it.

Also, don't even bother with the GROWSUP case, which would be using
different heuristics entirely, but only happens on parisc.
