Subject: do_wp_page: fix regression with execute in place
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=ab92661d5d9514647346047f30f67a7f35ffea67;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git

do_wp_page: fix regression with execute in place

Fix do_wp_page for VM_MIXEDMAP mappings.

In the case where pfn_valid returns 0 for a pfn at the beginning of
do_wp_page and the mapping is not shared writable, the code branches to
label `gotten:' with old_page == NULL.

In case the vma is locked (vma->vm_flags & VM_LOCKED), lock_page,
clear_page_mlock, and unlock_page try to access the old_page.

This patch checks whether old_page is valid before it is dereferenced.

The regression was introduced by "mlock: mlocked pages are unevictable"
(commit b291f000393f5a0b679012b39d79fbc85c018233).
