Alistair Popple efcf38d279 mm/migrate_device.c: flush TLB while holding PTL
commit 60bae73708963de4a17231077285bd9ff2f41c44 upstream.

When clearing a PTE the TLB should be flushed whilst still holding the PTL
to avoid a potential race with madvise/munmap/etc.  For example consider
the following sequence:

  CPU0                          CPU1
  ----                          ----

  migrate_vma_collect_pmd()
  pte_unmap_unlock()
                                madvise(MADV_DONTNEED)
                                -> zap_pte_range()
                                pte_offset_map_lock()
                                [ PTE not present, TLB not flushed ]
                                pte_unmap_unlock()
                                [ page is still accessible via stale TLB ]
  flush_tlb_range()

In this case the page may still be accessed via the stale TLB entry after
madvise returns.  Fix this by flushing the TLB while holding the PTL.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
