Subject: Re: [PATCH -v2] rmap: make anon_vma_prepare link in all the
 anon_vmas of a mergeable VMA

Haa, I think you're gonna want to improve them :)

	WARN_ONCE(1, "page->mapping does not exist in vma chain");

triggered on the first resume showing a rather messy 4 WARN_ONCEs. Had I
more cores, there maybe would've been more of them :) Maybe need locking
if clean output is of interest (see below).

So, anyway, if I can read this correctly, there is a page->mapping
anon_vma which is _not_ in the anon_vmas chain of the vma
(avc->same_vma).

And the spot we oops on is in page_referenced_anon():

	list_for_each_entry(avc, &anon_vma->head, same_anon_vma) {

which is actually where we iterate over all vmas associated with this
anon_vma.

So if that previous anon_vma pointed to by the page_mapping has been
falsely unlinked at some point, no wonder we boom on that later.

By the way, I completely understand when you say that your head hurts
from looking at this :).
