Subject: [PATCH 0/8] hugepage migration fixes (v5)

Hi everyone,

This is ver.5 patchset for fixing hugepage migration's race problem.

In ver.4, Hugh enlighted me about the problem around pmd_huge(), where
pmd_huge() returned false for migration/hwpoison entry and we treated them
as normal pages. IOW, we didn't handle !pmd_present case properly.

So I added a new separate patch for this problem as patch 2/8, and I changed
patch "mm/hugetlb: take page table lock in follow_huge_pmd()" (3/8 in this
series) to handle non-present hugetlb case in follow_huge_pmd().

Other than that, changes in this version are minor ones like comment fix.

Can I beg your comments and reviews again?

Thanks,
Naoya Horiguchi
