------------------------------------------------------ From: Janosch Frank frankja@linux.ibm.com Subject: userfaultfd: hugetlbfs: fix userfaultfd_huge_must_wait() pte access
Use huge_ptep_get() to translate huge ptes to normal ptes so we can check them with the huge_pte_* functions. Otherwise some architectures will check the wrong values and will not wait for userspace to bring in the memory.
