[ Upstream commit 48b8d744ea841b8adf8d07bfe7a2d55f22e4d179 ] Patch series "Fix prep_compound_gigantic_page ref count adjustment". These patches address the possible race between prep_compound_gigantic_page and __page_cache_add_speculative as described by Jann Horn in [1]. The first patch simply removes the unnecessary/obsolete helper routine prep_compound_huge_page to make the actual fix a little simpler. The second patch is the actual fix and has a detailed explanation in the commit message. This potential issue has existed for almost 10 years and I am unaware of anyone actually hitting the race. I did not cc stable, but would be happy to squash the patches and send to stable if anyone thinks that is a good idea. [1] https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/CAG48ez23q0Jy9cuVnwAe7t_fdhMk2S7N5Hdi-GLcCeq5bsfLxw@mail.gmail.com/ This patch (of 2): I could not think of a reliable way to recreate the issue for testing. Rather, I 'simulated errors' to exercise all the error paths. The routine prep_compound_huge_page is a simple wrapper to call either prep_compound_gigantic_page or prep_compound_page. However, it is only called from gather_bootmem_prealloc which only processes gigantic pages. Eliminate the routine and call prep_compound_gigantic_page directly.
