If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Naoya Horiguchi commit a2fce9143057f4eb7675a21cca1b6beabe585c8b upstream. Currently we fail to include any data on hugepages into coredump, because VM_DONTDUMP is set on hugetlbfs's vma. This behavior was recently introduced by commit 314e51b9851b ("mm: kill vma flag VM_RESERVED and mm->reserved_vm counter"). This looks to me a serious regression, so let's fix it.
