     Subject: mm: enable maple tree RCU mode by default
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     mm-enable-maple-tree-rcu-mode-by-default.patch

This patch was dropped because it was merged into the mm-hotfixes-stable branch
of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm

Use the maple tree in RCU mode for VMA tracking.

The maple tree tracks the stack and is able to update the pivot
(lower/upper boundary) in-place to allow the page fault handler to write
to the tree while holding just the mmap read lock.  This is safe as the
writes to the stack have a guard VMA which ensures there will always be a
NULL in the direction of the growth and thus will only update a pivot.

It is possible, but not recommended, to have VMAs that grow up/down
without guard VMAs.  syzbot has constructed a testcase which sets up a VMA
to grow and consume the empty space.  Overwriting the entire NULL entry
causes the tree to be altered in a way that is not safe for concurrent
readers; the readers may see a node being rewritten or one that does not
match the maple state they are using.

Enabling RCU mode allows the concurrent readers to see a stable node and
will return the expected result.
