    [PATCH] Fix bogus get_page() calls in hugepage code · 485583e1

    Some versions of follow_huge_addr() and follow_huge_pmd() are doing a
    get_page() on the target page.  They shouldn't: follow_page() returns an
    unpinned page and it is the caller's responsibility to pin the page (if
    desired) before dropping page_table_lock.
