mainlining shenanigans
943fb61dd6
Think about the below scenario:
CPU1 CPU2
z3fold_page_migrate z3fold_map
z3fold_page_trylock
...
z3fold_page_unlock
/* slots still points to old zhdr*/
get_z3fold_header
get slots from handle
get old zhdr from slots
z3fold_page_trylock
return *old* zhdr
encode_handle(new_zhdr, FIRST|LAST|MIDDLE)
put_page(page) /* zhdr is freed! */
but zhdr is still used by caller!
z3fold_map can map freed z3fold page and lead to use-after-free bug. To
fix it, we add PAGE_MIGRATED to indicate z3fold page is migrated and soon
to be released. So get_z3fold_header won't return such page.

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.
