Patch pointing to,
hugetlbfs: flush TLBs correctly after huge_pmd_unshare commit a4a118f2eead1d6c49e00765de89878288d4b890 upstream.
When __unmap_hugepage_range() calls to huge_pmd_unshare() succeed, a TLB flush is missing. This TLB flush must be performed before releasing the i_mmap_rwsem, in order to prevent an unshared PMDs page from being released and reused before the TLB flush took place.
Arguably, a comprehensive solution would use mmu_gather interface to batch the TLB flushes and the PMDs page release, however it is not an easy solution: (1) try_to_unmap_one() and try_to_migrate_one() also call huge_pmd_unshare() and they cannot use the mmu_gather interface; and (2) deferring the release of the page reference for the PMDs page until after i_mmap_rwsem is dropeed can confuse huge_pmd_unshare() into thinking PMDs are shared when they are not.
Fix __unmap_hugepage_range() by adding the missing TLB flush, and forcing a flush when unshare is successful.
