Subject: [PATCH 3/9] ksm: hold anon_vma in rmap_item
For full functionality, page_referenced_one() and try_to_unmap_one()
need to know the vma: to pass vma down to arch-dependent flushes,
or to observe VM_LOCKED or VM_EXEC. But KSM keeps no record of vma:
nor can it, since vmas get split and merged without its knowledge.
Instead, note page's anon_vma in its rmap_item when adding to stable
tree: all the vmas which might map that page are listed by its anon_vma.
page_referenced_ksm() and try_to_unmap_ksm() then traverse the anon_vma,
first to find the probable vma, that which matches rmap_item's mm; but
if that is not enough to locate all instances, traverse again to try the
others. This catches those occasions when fork has duplicated a pte of
a ksm page, but ksmd has not yet come around to assign it an rmap_item.
But each rmap_item in the stable tree which refers to an anon_vma needs
to take a reference to it. Andrea's anon_vma design cleverly avoided a
reference count (an anon_vma was free when its list of vmas was empty),
but KSM now needs to add that. Is a 32-bit count sufficient? I believe
so - the anon_vma is only free when both count is 0 and list is empty.
