mm/pagewalk.c: fix walk_page_range() access of wrong PTEs
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
When walk_page_range walk a memory map's page tables, it'll skip
VM_PFNMAP area, then variable 'next' will to assign to vma->vm_end, it
maybe larger than 'end'.  In next loop, 'addr' will be larger than
'next'.  Then in /proc/XXXX/pagemap file reading procedure, the 'addr'
will growing forever in pagemap_pte_range, pte_to_pagemap_entry will
access the wrong pte.

  BUG: Bad page map in process procrank  pte:8437526f pmd:785de067
