In hugetlb_fault(), there used to have a special path to handle swap entry at the entrance using huge_pte_offset(). That's unsafe because huge_pte_offset() for a pmd sharable range can access freed pgtables if without any lock to protect the pgtable from being freed after pmd unshare. Here the simplest solution to make it safe is to move the swap handling to be after the vma lock being held. We may need to take the fault mutex on either migration or hwpoison entries now (also the vma lock, but that's really needed), however neither of them is hot path. Note that the vma lock cannot be released in hugetlb_fault() when the migration entry is detected, because in migration_entry_wait_huge() the pgtable page will be used again (by taking the pgtable lock), so that also need to be protected by the vma lock. Modify migration_entry_wait_huge() so that it must be called with vma read lock held, and properly release the lock in __migration_entry_wait_huge().

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.
