Subject: [PATCH] mm/migrate: use huge_ptep_get() in remove_migration_pte()
remove_migration_pte() converts migration entries back to present PTEs
after folio migration completes. For hugetlb folios,
page_vma_mapped_walk() returns the pte pointer to the hugetlb folio in
pvmw.pte, but the code reads it 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.
