Subject[PATCH v7 22/24] mm: Speculative page fault handler return VMA
Date
When the speculative page fault handler is returning VM_RETRY, there is a
chance that VMA fetched without grabbing the mmap_sem can be reused by the
legacy page fault handler. By reusing it, we avoid calling find_vma()
again. To achieve, that we must ensure that the VMA structure will not be
freed in our back. This is done by getting the reference on it (get_vma())
and by assuming that the caller will call the new service
can_reuse_spf_vma() once it has grabbed the mmap_sem.

can_reuse_spf_vma() is first checking that the VMA is still in the RB tree
, and then that the VMA's boundaries matched the passed address and release
the reference on the VMA so that it can be freed if needed.

In the case the VMA is freed, can_reuse_spf_vma() will have returned false
as the VMA is no more in the RB tree.
