mm/huge_memory: fix lockdep complaint on 32-bit i_size_read()

Hugh Dickins · torvalds · commit 006d3ff27e88 · 2018-11-30T14:56:15.000-08:00
Huge tmpfs testing, on 32-bit kernel with lockdep enabled, showed that __split_huge_page() was using i_size_read() while holding the irq-safe lru_lock and page tree lock, but the 32-bit i_size_read() uses an irq-unsafe seqlock which should not be nested inside them. Instead, read the i_size earlier in split_huge_page_to_list(), and pass the end offset down to __split_huge_page(): all while holding head page lock, which is enough to prevent truncation of that extent before the page tree lock has been taken.
