hugetlbfs: avoid taking i_mutex from hugetlbfs_read()
Taking i_mutex in hugetlbfs_read() can result in deadlock with mmap as explained below Thread A: read() on hugetlbfs hugetlbfs_read() called i_mutex grabbed hugetlbfs_read_actor() called __copy_to_user() called page fault is triggered Thread B, sharing address space with A: mmap() the same file ->mmap_sem is grabbed on task_B->mm->mmap_sem hugetlbfs_file_mmap() is called attempt to grab ->i_mutex and block waiting for A to give it up Thread A: pagefault handled blocked on attempt to grab task_A->mm->mmap_sem, which happens to be the same thing as task_B->mm->mmap_sem. Block waiting for B to give it up. AFAIU the i_mutex locking was added to hugetlbfs_read() as per http://lkml.indiana.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0707.2/3066.html to take care of the race between truncate and read. This patch fixes this by looking at page->mapping under lock_page() (find_lock_page()) to ensure that the inode didn't get truncated in the range during a parallel read. Ideally we can extend the patch to make sure we don't increase i_size in mmap. But that will break userspace, because applications will now have to use truncate(2) to increase i_size in hugetlbfs. Based on the original patch from Hillf Danton.
