The quilt patch titled

     mm-migrate_devicec-flush-tlb-while-holding-ptl.patch

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

Subject: mm/migrate_device.c: flush TLB while holding PTL
Date: Fri, 2 Sep 2022 10:35:51 +1000

When clearing a PTE the TLB should be flushed whilst still holding the PTL
to avoid a potential race with madvise/munmap/etc.  For example consider
the following sequence:

  CPU0                          CPU1
  ----                          ----

  migrate_vma_collect_pmd()
  pte_unmap_unlock()
                                madvise(MADV_DONTNEED)
                                -> zap_pte_range()
                                pte_offset_map_lock()
                                [ PTE not present, TLB not flushed ]
                                pte_unmap_unlock()
                                [ page is still accessible via stale TLB ]
  flush_tlb_range()

In this case the page may still be accessed via the stale TLB entry after
madvise returns.  Fix this by flushing the TLB while holding the PTL.
