When a tail page of THP is poisoned, memory-failure will do nothing except
setting PG_hwpoison, while the expected behavior is that the process, who
is using the poisoned tail page, should be killed.
The above problem is caused by lru check of the poisoned tail page of THP.
Because PG_lru flag is only set on the head page of THP, the check always
consider the poisoned tail page as NON lru page.
So the lru check for the tail page of THP should be avoided, as like as
hugetlb.
This patch adds !PageTransCompound() before lru check for THP, because of
the check (!PageHuge() && !PageTransCompound()) the whole branch could be
optimized away at build time when both hugetlbfs and THP are set with "N"
(or in archs not supporting either of those).

When the tail page of THP is poisoned, the head page will be poisoned too.
And the wrong address, address of head page, will be sent with sigbus
always.
So when the poisoned page is used by Guest OS which is running on KVM,
after the address changing(hva->gpa) by qemu, the unexpected process on
Guest OS will be killed by sigbus.
What we expected is that the process using the poisoned tail page could be
killed on Guest OS, but not that the process using the healthy head page
is killed.
Since it is not good to poison the healthy page, avoid poisoning other
than the page which is really poisoned.
(While we poison all pages in a huge page in case of hugetlb,
we can do this for THP thanks to split_huge_page().)
Here we fix two parts:
1. Isolate the poisoned page only to make sure
the reported address is the address of poisoned page.
2. make the poisoned page work as the poisoned regular page.

The poisoned THP is now split with split_huge_page() in
collect_procs_anon(). If kmalloc() is failed in collect_procs(),
split_huge_page() could not be called. And the work after
split_huge_page() for collecting the processes using poisoned page will
not be done, too. So the processes using the poisoned page could not be
killed.
The condition becomes worse when CONFIG_DEBUG_VM == "Y". Because the
poisoned THP could not be split, system panic will be caused by
VM_BUG_ON(PageTransHuge(page)) in try_to_unmap().
This patch does:
1. move split_huge_page() to the place before collect_procs().
This can be sure the failure of splitting THP is caused by itself.
2. when splitting THP is failed, stop the operations after it.
This can avoid unexpected system panic or non sense works.

As Tao Ma noticed, change 5ecfda0 breaks blktrace. This is because
blktrace mmaps a file with PROT_WRITE permissions but without PROT_READ,
so my attempt to not unnecessarity break COW during mlock ended up
causing mlock to fail with a permission problem.
I am proposing to let mlock ignore vma protection in all cases except
PROT_NONE. In particular, mlock should not fail for PROT_WRITE regions
(as in the blktrace case, which broke at 5ecfda0) or for PROT_EXEC
regions (which seem to me like they were always broken).

Currently, we allow the pending_mid_q to grow without bound with
SIGKILL'ed processes. This could eventually be a DoS'able problem. An
unprivileged user could a process that does a long-running call and then
SIGKILL it.
If he can also intercept the NT_CANCEL calls or the replies from the
server, then the pending_mid_q could grow very large, possibly even to
2^16 entries which might leave GetNextMid in an infinite loop. Fix this
by imposing a hard limit of 32k calls per server. If we cross that
limit, set the tcpStatus to CifsNeedReconnect to force cifsd to
eventually reconnect the socket and clean out the pending_mid_q.
While we're at it, clean up the function a bit and eliminate an

Currently, when a request is cancelled via signal, we delete the mid
immediately. If the request was already transmitted however, the client
is still likely to receive a response. When it does, it won't recognize
it however and will pop a printk.
It's also a little dangerous to just delete the mid entry like this. We
may end up reusing that mid. If we do then we could potentially get the
response from the first request confused with the later one.
Prevent the reuse of mids by marking them as cancelled and keeping them
on the pending_mid_q list. If the reply comes in, we'll delete it from
the list then. If it never comes, then we'll delete it at reconnect
or when cifsd comes down.

In ntfs_mft_record_alloc() when mapping the new extent mft record with
map_extent_mft_record() we overwrite @m with the return value and on
error, we then try to use the old @m but that is no longer there as @m
now contains an error code instead so we crash when dereferencing the
error code as if it were a pointer.
The simple fix is to use a temporary variable to store the return value
thus preserving the original @m for later use. This is a backport from
the commercial Tuxera-NTFS driver and is well tested...
