mm/thp: fix "mm: thp: kill __transhuge_page_enabled()"
mainline inclusion
from mainline-v6.7-rc1
category: bugfix
The 6.0 commits:
commit 9fec516 ("mm: thp: kill transparent_hugepage_active()")
commit 7da4e2c ("mm: thp: kill __transhuge_page_enabled()")
merged "can we have THPs in this VMA?" logic that was previously done
separately by fault-path, khugepaged, and smaps "THPeligible" checks.
During the process, the semantics of the fault path check changed in two
ways:
1) A VM_NO_KHUGEPAGED check was introduced (also added to smaps path).
2) We no longer checked if non-anonymous memory had a vm_ops->huge_fault
handler that could satisfy the fault. Previously, this check had been
done in create_huge_pud() and create_huge_pmd() routines, but after
the changes, we never reach those routines.
During the review of the above commits, it was determined that in-tree
users weren't affected by the change; most notably, since the only
relevant user (in terms of THP) of VM_MIXEDMAP or ->huge_fault is DAX,
which is explicitly approved early in approval logic. However, this was a
bad assumption to make as it assumes the only reason to support
->huge_fault was for DAX (which is not true in general).
Remove the VM_NO_KHUGEPAGED check when not in collapse path and give any
->huge_fault handler a chance to handle the fault. Note that we don't
validate the file mode or mapping alignment, which is consistent with the
behavior before the aforementioned commits.
