Subject: mm/userfaultfd: detect VMA replacement after copy retry in mfill_copy_folio_retry()
Date: Tue, 31 Mar 2026 14:41:58 +0100

In mfill_copy_folio_retry(), all locks are dropped to retry
copy_from_user() with page faults enabled.  During this window, the VMA
can be replaced entirely (e.g.  munmap + mmap + UFFDIO_REGISTER by another
thread), but the caller proceeds with a folio allocated from the original
VMA's backing store.

Checking ops alone is insufficient: the replacement VMA could be the same
type (e.g.  shmem -> shmem) with identical flags but a different backing
inode.  Take a snapshot of the VMA's file and flags before dropping locks,
and compare after re-acquiring them.  If anything changed, bail out with
-EINVAL.

Use get_file()/fput() rather than ihold()/iput() to hold the file
reference across the lock-dropped window, avoiding potential deadlocks
from filesystem eviction under mmap_lock.
