mm: call wp_page_copy() under the VMA lock
mainline inclusion from mainline-v6.7-rc1 commit 164b06f238b986317131e6b61b2f22aabcbc2cc0 category: other bugzilla: https://gitee.com/openeuler/kernel/issues/I8K7C7 Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=164b06f238b986317131e6b61b2f22aabcbc2cc0 -------------------------------- It is usually safe to call wp_page_copy() under the VMA lock. The only unsafe situation is when no anon_vma has been allocated for this VMA, and we have to look at adjacent VMAs to determine if their anon_vma can be shared. Since this happens only for the first COW of a page in this VMA, the majority of calls to wp_page_copy() do not need to fall back to the mmap_sem. Add vmf_anon_prepare() as an alternative to anon_vma_prepare() which will return RETRY if we currently hold the VMA lock and need to allocate an anon_vma. This lets us drop the check in do_wp_page().
