I wonder if you would do better just to set S_PRIVATE unconditionally
there.
hugetlb_file_setup() has two callsites, neither of which exposes an fd.
One of them is shm.c's newseg(), which is getting us into the lockdep
trouble that you're fixing here.
The other is mmap.c's mmap_pgoff(). Now I don't think that will ever
get into lockdep trouble (no mutex or rwsem has been taken at that
point), but might your change above introduce (perhaps now or perhaps
in future) an inconsistency between how SElinux checks are applied to
a SHM area, and how they are applied to a MAP_ANONYMOUS|MAP_HUGETLB
area, and how they are applied to a straight MAP_ANONYMOUS area?
I think your patch as it stands brings SHM into line with
MAP_ANONYMOUS, but leaves MAP_ANONYMOUS|MAP_HUGETLB going the old way.
Perhaps an anomaly would appear when mprotect() is used?
It's up to you: I think your patch is okay as is,
but I just wonder if it has a surprise in store for the future.
