Subject[PATCH 4.4 104/163] mm/huge_memory: replace VM_NO_THP VM_BUG_ON with actual VMA check
Date
4.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Konstantin Khlebnikov <koct9i@gmail.com>

commit 3486b85a29c1741db99d0c522211c82d2b7a56d0 upstream.

Khugepaged detects own VMAs by checking vm_file and vm_ops but this way
it cannot distinguish private /dev/zero mappings from other special
mappings like /dev/hpet which has no vm_ops and popultes PTEs in mmap.

This fixes false-positive VM_BUG_ON and prevents installing THP where
they are not expected.
