Subject[PATCH 4.9 114/164] powerpc/iommu: Do not call PageTransHuge() on tail pages
Message-ID<tKoL5-8pv-143@gated-at.bofh.it>
4.9-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Alexey Kardashevskiy <aik@ozlabs.ru>

commit e889e96e98e8da97bd39e46b7253615eabe14397 upstream.

The CMA pages migration code does not support compound pages at
the moment so it performs few tests before proceeding to actual page
migration.

One of the tests - PageTransHuge() - has VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(PageTail()) as
it is designed to be called on head pages only. Since we also test for
PageCompound(), and it contains PageTail() and PageHead(), we can
simplify the check by leaving just PageCompound() and therefore avoid
possible VM_BUG_ON_PAGE.

Fixes: 2e5bbb5461f1 ("KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Migrate pinned pages out of CMA")
