Subject: [PATCH 4.14 18/25] mm/thp: another PVMW_SYNC fix in page_vma_mapped_walk()

From: Hugh Dickins <hughd@...gle.com>

[ Upstream commit a7a69d8ba88d8dcee7ef00e91d413a4bd003a814 ]

Aha! Shouldn't that quick scan over pte_none()s make sure that it holds
ptlock in the PVMW_SYNC case? That too might have been responsible for
BUGs or WARNs in split_huge_page_to_list() or its unmap_page(), though
I've never seen any.
