mm/memory.c: recheck page table entry with page table lock held
commit ff09d7ec9786be4ad7589aa987d7dc66e2dd9160 upstream. We clear the pte temporarily during read/modify/write update of the pte. If we take a page fault while the pte is cleared, the application can get SIGBUS. One such case is with remap_pfn_range without a backing vm_ops->fault callback. do_fault will return SIGBUS in that case. cpu 0 cpu1 mprotect() ptep_modify_prot_start()/pte cleared. . . page fault. . . prep_modify_prot_commit() Fix this by taking page table lock and rechecking for pte_none.
