From b3084f4db3aeb991c507ca774337c7e7893ed04f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Aneesh Kumar K.V" Date: Mon, 13 Jan 2014 11:34:24 +0530 Subject: powerpc/thp: Fix crash on mremap This patch fix the below crash NIP [c00000000004cee4] .__hash_page_thp+0x2a4/0x440 LR [c0000000000439ac] .hash_page+0x18c/0x5e0 ...

On mremap, when we switch the pmd, we need to withdraw and deposit the pgtable again, so that we find the pgtable at PTRS_PER_PMD offset from new pmd. We also want to move the withdraw and deposit before the set_pmd so that, when page fault find the pmd as trans huge we can be sure that pgtable can be located at the offset.
