The quilt patch titled

has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was

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

Subject: mm/hugetlb: fix uffd wr-protection for CoW optimization path
Date: Tue, 21 Mar 2023 15:18:40 -0400
This patch fixes an issue that a hugetlb uffd-wr-protected mapping can be
writable even with uffd-wp bit set. It only happens with hugetlb private
mappings, when someone firstly wr-protects a missing pte (which will
install a pte marker), then a write to the same page without any prior
access to the page.
Userfaultfd-wp trap for hugetlb was implemented in hugetlb_fault() before
reaching hugetlb_wp() to avoid taking more locks that userfault won't
need. However there's one CoW optimization path that can trigger
hugetlb_wp() inside hugetlb_no_page(), which will bypass the trap.
This patch skips hugetlb_wp() for CoW and retries the fault if uffd-wp bit
is detected. The new path will only trigger in the CoW optimization path
because generic hugetlb_fault() (e.g. when a present pte was
wr-protected) will resolve the uffd-wp bit already. Also make sure
anonymous UNSHARE won't be affected and can still be resolved, IOW only
skip CoW not CoR.
This patch will be needed for v5.19+ hence copy stable.
