Subject: [PATCH 4.19 038/110] mm/memory.c: recheck page table entry with page table lock held

4.19-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Aneesh Kumar K.V <aneesh.kumar@...ux.ibm.com>

commit ff09d7ec9786be4ad7589aa987d7dc66e2dd9160 upstream.

We clear the pte temporarily during read/modify/write update of the pte.
If we take a page fault while the pte is cleared, the application can get
SIGBUS.  One such case is with remap_pfn_range without a backing
vm_ops->fault callback.  do_fault will return SIGBUS in that case.

cpu 0		 				cpu1
mprotect()
ptep_modify_prot_start()/pte cleared.
.
.						page fault.
.
.
prep_modify_prot_commit()

Fix this by taking page table lock and rechecking for pte_none.
