Subject: mm/ksm: fix race with VMA iteration and mm_struct teardown
Date: Wed, 8 Mar 2023 17:03:10 -0500
exit_mmap() will tear down the VMAs and maple tree with the mmap_lock held
in write mode. Ensure that the maple tree is still valid by checking
ksm_test_exit() after taking the mmap_lock in read mode, but before the
for_each_vma() iterator dereferences a destroyed maple tree.
Since the maple tree is destroyed, the flags telling lockdep to check an
external lock has been cleared. Skip the for_each_vma() iterator to avoid
dereferencing a maple tree without the external lock flag, which would
create a lockdep warning.
