Mike Kravetz 187da0f825 hugetlb: fix null-ptr-deref in hugetlb_vma_lock_write
The routine __vma_private_lock tests for the existence of a reserve map
associated with a private hugetlb mapping.  A pointer to the reserve map
is in vma->vm_private_data.  __vma_private_lock was checking the pointer
for NULL.  However, it is possible that the low bits of the pointer could
be used as flags.  In such instances, vm_private_data is not NULL and not
a valid pointer.  This results in the null-ptr-deref reported by syzbot:

general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address 0xdffffc000000001d:

Mask off low bit flags before checking for NULL pointer.  In addition, the
reserve map only 'belongs' to the OWNER (parent in parent/child
relationships) so also check for the OWNER flag.

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.
