Subject: mm: fix finish_fault() handling for large folios
Date: Wed, 26 Feb 2025 11:23:41 -0500

When handling faults for anon shmem finish_fault() will attempt to install
ptes for the entire folio.  Unfortunately if it encounters a single
non-pte_none entry in that range it will bail, even if the pte that
triggered the fault is still pte_none.  When this situation happens the
fault will be retried endlessly never making forward progress.

This patch fixes this behavior and if it detects that a pte in the range
is not pte_none it will fall back to setting a single pte.
