[merged mm-stable] mm-hugetlb-charge-folios-to-the-target-mms-memcg.patch removed from -mm tree

[Andrew Morton]

The quilt patch titled
     Subject: mm/hugetlb: charge folios to the target mm's memcg
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     mm-hugetlb-charge-folios-to-the-target-mms-memcg.patch

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

Subject: mm/hugetlb: charge folios to the target mm's memcg
Date: Thu, 3 Sep 2026 15:50:48 +0800

HugeTLB folios are currently charged to the memcg of the allocating task. 
This gives the wrong result when a userfaultfd handler populates a HugeTLB
VMA that belongs to another process.  The UFFDIO_COPY ioctl operates on
the userfaultfd context's mm, but get_mem_cgroup_from_current() charges
the folio to the handler's memcg instead.

This can be reproduced by placing the faulting process and its userfaultfd
handler in different memory cgroups.  Have the target process register a
HugeTLB mapping with userfaultfd, trigger a missing fault, and let the
handler resolve it with UFFDIO_COPY.  The hugepage usage is then reported
in the handler's memory.current instead of the target's.

The generic userfaultfd population path avoids this problem by charging
folios to dst_vma->vm_mm.

Pass the target mm through hugetlb_alloc_folio() and charge the folio by
using get_mem_cgroup_from_mm().  This preserves the existing charge timing
and error handling while making HugeTLB userfaultfd population consistent
with the generic path.
