Hugh Dickins bd55b0c2d6 mm/thp: ClearPageDoubleMap in first page_add_file_rmap() 
PageDoubleMap is maintained differently for anon and for shmem+file: the
shmem+file one was never cleared, because a safe place to do so could
not be found; so it would blight future use of the cached hugepage until
evicted.

See https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/1571938066-29031-1-git-send-email-yang.shi@linux.alibaba.com/

But page_add_file_rmap() does provide a safe place to do so (though later
than one might wish): allowing testing to return to an initial state
without a damaging drop_caches.

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.
