Subject: [PATCH 2/5] mm: Clear vmf->pte after pte_unmap_same() returns
Date: Wed,  1 Sep 2021 16:56:19 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210901205622.6935-3-peterx@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20210901205622.6935-1-peterx@redhat.com>

pte_unmap_same() will always unmap the pte pointer.  After the unmap, vmf->pte
will not be valid any more, we should clear it.

It was safe only because no one is accessing vmf->pte after pte_unmap_same()
returns, since the only caller of pte_unmap_same() (so far) is do_swap_page(),
where vmf->pte will in most cases be overwritten very soon.

Directly pass in vmf into pte_unmap_same() and then we can also avoid the long
parameter list too, which should be a nice cleanup.
