If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ commit 2af8ff291848cc4b1cce24b6c943394eb2c761e8 upstream. Huge tmpfs testing reminds us that there is no __GFP_ZERO in the gfp flags khugepaged uses to allocate a huge page - in all common cases it would just be a waste of effort - so collapse_shmem() must remember to clear out any holes that it instantiates. The obvious place to do so, where they are put into the page cache tree, is not a good choice: because interrupts are disabled there. Leave it until further down, once success is assured, where the other pages are copied (before setting PageUptodate).
