Oleg Nesterov 6d27a31ef1 uprobes: introduce the global struct vm_special_mapping xol_mapping
Currently each xol_area has its own instance of vm_special_mapping, this
is suboptimal and ugly.  Kill xol_area->xol_mapping and add a single
global instance of vm_special_mapping, the ->fault() method can use
area->pages rather than xol_mapping->pages.

As a side effect this fixes the problem introduced by the recent commit
223febc6e5 ("mm: add optional close() to struct vm_special_mapping"), if
special_mapping_close() is called from the __mmput() paths, it will use
vma->vm_private_data = &area->xol_mapping freed by uprobe_clear_state().

README

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 reStructuredText 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.
