    mm/pagewalk: walk_pte_range() allow for pte_offset_map() · be872f83
    Hugh Dickins authored
    walk_pte_range() has a no_vma option to serve walk_page_range_novma().  I
    don't know of any problem, but it looks safer to check for init_mm, and
    use pte_offset_kernel() rather than pte_offset_map() in that case:
    pte_offset_map()'s pmdval validation is intended for userspace.
    
    Allow for its pte_offset_map() or pte_offset_map_lock() to fail, and retry
    with ACTION_AGAIN if so.  Add a second check for ACTION_AGAIN in
    walk_pmd_range(), to catch it after return from walk_pte_range().
    
    Remove the pmd_trans_unstable() check after split_huge_pmd() in
    walk_pmd_range(): walk_pte_range() now handles those cases safely (and
    they must fail powerpc's is_hugepd() check).
