Mike Kravetz 34ae204f18 hugetlbfs: remove call to huge_pte_alloc without i_mmap_rwsem 
Commit c0d0381ade ("hugetlbfs: use i_mmap_rwsem for more pmd sharing
synchronization") requires callers of huge_pte_alloc to hold i_mmap_rwsem
in at least read mode.  This is because the explicit locking in
huge_pmd_share (called by huge_pte_alloc) was removed.  When restructuring
the code, the call to huge_pte_alloc in the else block at the beginning of
hugetlb_fault was missed.

Unfortunately, that else clause is exercised when there is no page table
entry.  This will likely lead to a call to huge_pmd_share.  If
huge_pmd_share thinks pmd sharing is possible, it will traverse the
mapping tree (i_mmap) without holding i_mmap_rwsem.  If someone else is
modifying the tree, bad things such as addressing exceptions or worse
could happen.

Simply remove the else clause.  It should have been removed previously.
The code following the else will call huge_pte_alloc with the appropriate
locking.

To prevent this type of issue in the future, add routines to assert that
i_mmap_rwsem is held, and call these routines in huge pmd sharing
routines.

Fixes: c0d0381ade ("hugetlbfs: use i_mmap_rwsem for more pmd sharing synchronization")

README 

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

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

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.
