Subject: userfaultfd: wait on source PMD during UFFDIO_MOVE
Date: Sun, 5 Jul 2026 06:12:31 -0700
move_pages_huge_pmd() snapshots src_pmdval under src_ptl, drops the lock,
and, for migration entries, waits with pmd_migration_entry_wait().
Passing &src_pmdval is wrong. pmd_migration_entry_wait() must lock and
re-read the real page-table PMD; on split-PMD-lock kernels, a stack
address also resolves to the wrong lock. softleaf_entry_wait_on_locked()
then waits without a folio reference, which is safe only while serialized
against migration-entry removal by the real PT lock.
Pass src_pmd, matching __handle_mm_fault() and hmm_vma_walk_pmd().
