Subject: [PATCH] fs/proc/task_mmu: do not warn on seeing non-migration pmd entry
Date: Fri, 29 May 2026 11:17:03 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260529111704.1078346-1-dev.jain@arm.com> (raw)

pagemap_pmd_range_thp() warns if a non-present PMD is not a migration
entry. This became false once device-private entries at the PMD level were
added.

One can hit the warning by patching hmm-tests.c with the following:

Therefore, remove the stale migration-only assertion.
