Mike Kravetz 09a26e8327 hugetlb: fix hugetlb cgroup refcounting during vma split 
Guillaume Morin reported hitting the following WARNING followed by GPF or
NULL pointer deference either in cgroups_destroy or in the kill_css path.:

    percpu ref (css_release) <= 0 (-1) after switching to atomic
    WARNING: CPU: 23 PID: 130 at lib/percpu-refcount.c:196 percpu_ref_switch_to_atomic_rcu+0x127/0x130

Upon further examination, it was discovered that the css structure was
associated with hugetlb reservations.

For private hugetlb mappings the vma points to a reserve map that
contains a pointer to the css.  At mmap time, reservations are set up
and a reference to the css is taken.  This reference is dropped in the
vma close operation; hugetlb_vm_op_close.  However, if a vma is split no
additional reference to the css is taken yet hugetlb_vm_op_close will be
called twice for the split vma resulting in an underflow.

Fix by taking another reference in hugetlb_vm_op_open.  Note that the
reference is only taken for the owner of the reserve map.  In the more
common fork case, the pointer to the reserve map is cleared for
non-owning vmas.

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
