[PATCHv8 13/32] thp: run vma_adjust_trans_huge() outside i_mmap_rwsem

Show all headers | View raw

vma_addjust_trans_huge() splits pmd if it's crossing VMA boundary.
During split we munlock the huge page which requires rmap walk.
rmap wants to take the lock on its own.

Let's move vma_adjust_trans_huge() outside i_mmap_rwsem to fix this.
