[PATCH v2 05/14] mm: khugepaged: __collapse_huge_page_swapin() use pte_offset_map_ro_nolock()

From: Qi Zheng <hidden>
Date: 2024-08-22 07:14:17
Also in: linux-arm-kernel, linux-mm, lkml
Subsystem: memory management, memory management - thp (transparent huge page), the rest · Maintainers: Andrew Morton, David Hildenbrand, Lorenzo Stoakes, Linus Torvalds

In __collapse_huge_page_swapin(), we just use the ptl for pte_same() check
in do_swap_page(). In other places, we directly use pte_offset_map_lock(),
so convert it to using pte_offset_map_ro_nolock().
