[merged mm-hotfixes-stable] maple_tree-fix-ma_state_prealloc-flag-in-mas_preallocate.patch removed from -mm tree

[Andrew Morton]

The quilt patch titled
     Subject: maple_tree: fix MA_STATE_PREALLOC flag in mas_preallocate()
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     maple_tree-fix-ma_state_prealloc-flag-in-mas_preallocate.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: maple_tree: fix MA_STATE_PREALLOC flag in mas_preallocate()
Date: Mon, 16 Jun 2025 14:45:20 -0400

Temporarily clear the preallocation flag when explicitly requesting
allocations.  Pre-existing allocations are already counted against the
request through mas_node_count_gfp(), but the allocations will not happen
if the MA_STATE_PREALLOC flag is set.  This flag is meant to avoid
re-allocating in bulk allocation mode, and to detect issues with
preallocation calculations.

The MA_STATE_PREALLOC flag should also always be set on zero allocations
so that detection of underflow allocations will print a WARN_ON() during
consumption.

User visible effect of this flaw is a WARN_ON() followed by a null pointer
dereference when subsequent requests for larger number of nodes is
ignored, such as the vma merge retry in mmap_region() caused by drivers
altering the vma flags (which happens in v6.6, at least)
