Subject: Fix refcounting in hugetlbfs quota handling
Linus, please apply
hugetlbfs tracks the current usage of hugepages per hugetlbfs
mountpoint. To correctly track this when hugepages are released, it
must find the right hugetlbfs super_block from the struct page
available in free_huge_page().
It does this by storing a pointer to the hugepage's struct
address_space in the page_private data. The hugetlb_{get,put}_quota
functions go from this mapping to the inode and thence to the
super_block.
However, this usage is buggy, because nothing ensures that the
address_space is not freed before all the hugepages that belonged to
it are. In practice that will usually be the case, but if extra page
references have been taken by e.g. drivers or kvm doing
get_user_pages() then the file, inode and address space may be
destroyed before all the pages.
In addition, the quota functions use the mapping only to get the inode
then the super_block. However, most of the callers already have the
inode anyway and have to get the mapping from there.
This patch, therefore, stores a pointer to the inode instead of the
address_space in the page private data for hugepages. More
importantly it correctly adjusts the reference count on the inodes
when they're added to the page private data. This ensures that the
inode (and therefore the super block) will not be freed before we use
it from free_huge_page.
