For KVM mmu_notifier_invalidate_range is a noop and rightfully so. A MMU notifier implementation has to implement either ->invalidate_range method or the invalidate_range_start/end methods, not both. And if you implement invalidate_range_start/end like KVM is forced to do, calling mmu_notifier_invalidate_range in common code is a noop for KVM. For those MMU notifiers that can get away only implementing ->invalidate_range, the ->invalidate_range is implicitly called by mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_end(). And only those secondary MMUs that share the same pagetable with the primary MMU (like AMD iommuv2) can get away only implementing ->invalidate_range" As the callback is allowed to sleep and the implementation is out of hand of the MM it is safer to simply bail out if there is an mmu notifier registered. In order to not fail too early make the mm_has_notifiers check under the oom_lock and have a little nap before failing to give the current oom victim some more time to exit.
