Subject: [PATCH 4.19 42/46] mm, page_alloc: fix has_unmovable_pages for HugePages

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

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

From: Oscar Salvador <osalvador@...e.de>

commit 17e2e7d7e1b83fa324b3f099bfe426659aa3c2a4 upstream.

While playing with gigantic hugepages and memory_hotplug, I triggered
the following #PF when "cat memoryX/removable":

  BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000008
  #PF error: [normal kernel read fault]
  PGD 0 P4D 0
  Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP PTI
  CPU: 1 PID: 1481 Comm: cat Tainted: G            E     4.20.0-rc6-mm1-1-default+ #18
  Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS 1.0.0-prebuilt.qemu-project.org 04/01/2014
  RIP: 0010:has_unmovable_pages+0x154/0x210
  Call Trace:

   entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x44/0xa9

The reason is we do not pass the Head to page_hstate(), and so, the call
to compound_order() in page_hstate() returns 0, so we end up checking
all hstates's size to match PAGE_SIZE.

Obviously, we do not find any hstate matching that size, and we return
NULL.  Then, we dereference that NULL pointer in
hugepage_migration_supported() and we got the #PF from above.

Fix that by getting the head page before calling page_hstate().

Also, since gigantic pages span several pageblocks, re-adjust the logic
for skipping pages.  While are it, we can also get rid of the
round_up().

[osalvador@...e.de: remove round_up(), adjust skip pages logic per Michal]
