Subject: mm/hugetlb: restore the reservation if needed
Date: Wed, 17 Jan 2024 09:10:57 -0800

Currently there is a bug that a huge page could be stolen, and when the
original owner tries to fault in it, it causes a page fault.

You can achieve that by:
  1) Creating a single page
	echo 1 > /sys/kernel/mm/hugepages/hugepages-2048kB/nr_hugepages

  2) mmap() the page above with MAP_HUGETLB into (void *ptr1).
	* This will mark the page as reserved
  3) touch the page, which causes a page fault and allocates the page
	* This will move the page out of the free list.
	* It will also unreserved the page, since there is no more free
	  page
  4) madvise(MADV_DONTNEED) the page
	* This will free the page, but not mark it as reserved.
  5) Allocate a secondary page with mmap(MAP_HUGETLB) into (void *ptr2).
	* it should fail, but, since there is no more available page.
	* But, since the page above is not reserved, this mmap() succeed.
  6) Faulting at ptr1 will cause a SIGBUS
	* it will try to allocate a huge page, but there is none
	  available

A full reproducer is in selftest. See
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20240105155419.1939484-1-leitao@debian.org/

Fix this by restoring the reserved page if necessary.  If the page being
unmapped has HPAGE_RESV_OWNER set, and needs a reservation, set the
restore_reserve flag, which will move the page from free to reserved.
