Subject: [PATCH] mm/rmap: use huge_ptep_get() in try_to_migrate_one()
try_to_migrate_one() is used by folio migration to replace a present
mapping with a migration entry. For hugetlb folios, page_vma_mapped_walk()
returns the pte pointer to the hugetlb folio in pvmw.pte, but the code
reads the huge pte entry with ptep_get().
On arches which provide their own huge_ptep_get() to dereference a huge
pte pointer, accessing via ptep_get() would cause pte_pfn(), pte_present()
etc to misbehave.
It is not clear whether this has a trivially visible effect to userspace.
Use huge_ptep_get() to dereference a huge pte pointer.
Commit a98a2f0c8ce1 copied the bug from try_to_unmap_one into
try_to_migrate_one.
