Subject: mm/hugetlb: add missing hugetlb_lock in __unmap_hugepage_range()
Date: Sun, 24 Aug 2025 03:21:15 +0900
When restoring a reservation for an anonymous page, we need to check to
freeing a surplus. However, __unmap_hugepage_range() causes data race
because it reads h->surplus_huge_pages without the protection of
hugetlb_lock.
And adjust_reservation is a boolean variable that indicates whether
reservations for anonymous pages in each folio should be restored.
Therefore, it should be initialized to false for each round of the loop.
However, this variable is not initialized to false except when defining
the current adjust_reservation variable.
This means that once adjust_reservation is set to true even once within
the loop, reservations for anonymous pages will be restored
unconditionally in all subsequent rounds, regardless of the folio's state.
To fix this, we need to add the missing hugetlb_lock, unlock the
page_table_lock earlier so that we don't lock the hugetlb_lock inside the
page_table_lock lock, and initialize adjust_reservation to false on each
round within the loop.
