hugetlbfs: use i_mmap_rwsem for more pmd sharing synchronization

hugetlbfs: use i_mmap_rwsem for more pmd sharing synchronization

Patch series "hugetlbfs: use i_mmap_rwsem for more synchronization", v2.

While discussing the issue with huge_pte_offset [1], I remembered that
there were more outstanding hugetlb races.  These issues are:

1) For shared pmds, huge PTE pointers returned by huge_pte_alloc can become
   invalid via a call to huge_pmd_unshare by another thread.
2) hugetlbfs page faults can race with truncation causing invalid global
   reserve counts and state.

A previous attempt was made to use i_mmap_rwsem in this manner as
described at [2].  However, those patches were reverted starting with [3]
due to locking issues.

To effectively use i_mmap_rwsem to address the above issues it needs to be
held (in read mode) during page fault processing.  However, during fault
processing we need to lock the page we will be adding.  Lock ordering
requires we take page lock before i_mmap_rwsem.  Waiting until after
taking the page lock is too late in the fault process for the
synchronization we want to do.

To address this lock ordering issue, the following patches change the lock
ordering for hugetlb pages.  This is not too invasive as hugetlbfs
processing is done separate from core mm in many places.  However, I don't
really like this idea.  Much ugliness is contained in the new routine
hugetlb_page_mapping_lock_write() of patch 1.

The only other way I can think of to address these issues is by catching
all the races.  After catching a race, cleanup, backout, retry ...  etc,
as needed.  This can get really ugly, especially for huge page
reservations.  At one time, I started writing some of the reservation
backout code for page faults and it got so ugly and complicated I went
down the path of adding synchronization to avoid the races.  Any other
suggestions would be welcome.

This patch (of 2):

While looking at BUGs associated with invalid huge page map counts, it was
discovered and observed that a huge pte pointer could become 'invalid' and
point to another task's page table.  Consider the following:

A task takes a page fault on a shared hugetlbfs file and calls
huge_pte_alloc to get a ptep.  Suppose the returned ptep points to a
shared pmd.

Now, another task truncates the hugetlbfs file.  As part of truncation, it
unmaps everyone who has the file mapped.  If the range being truncated is
covered by a shared pmd, huge_pmd_unshare will be called.  For all but the
last user of the shared pmd, huge_pmd_unshare will clear the pud pointing
to the pmd.  If the task in the middle of the page fault is not the last
user, the ptep returned by huge_pte_alloc now points to another task's
page table or worse.  This leads to bad things such as incorrect page
map/reference counts or invalid memory references.

To fix, expand the use of i_mmap_rwsem as follows:
- i_mmap_rwsem is held in read mode whenever huge_pmd_share is called.
  huge_pmd_share is only called via huge_pte_alloc, so callers of
  huge_pte_alloc take i_mmap_rwsem before calling.  In addition, callers
  of huge_pte_alloc continue to hold the semaphore until finished with
  the ptep.
- i_mmap_rwsem is held in write mode whenever huge_pmd_unshare is called.

One problem with this scheme is that it requires taking i_mmap_rwsem
before taking the page lock during page faults.  This is not the order
specified in the rest of mm code.  Handling of hugetlbfs pages is mostly
isolated today.  Therefore, we use this alternative locking order for
PageHuge() pages.

         mapping->i_mmap_rwsem
           hugetlb_fault_mutex (hugetlbfs specific page fault mutex)
             page->flags PG_locked (lock_page)

To help with lock ordering issues, hugetlb_page_mapping_lock_write() is
introduced to write lock the i_mmap_rwsem associated with a page.

In most cases it is easy to get address_space via vma->vm_file->f_mapping.
However, in the case of migration or memory errors for anon pages we do
not have an associated vma.  A new routine _get_hugetlb_page_mapping()
will use anon_vma to get address_space in these cases.
