I think the locking is broken here? collapse_huge_page() used to enter with the
mmamp read lock and exit without the lock held at all. After the change, this is
only true for order == HPAGE_PMD_ORDER. For other orders, you exit with the mmap
read lock still held. Perhaps:

	else
		mmap_read_unlock(mm);
