+
+    hugepages: fix use after free bug in "quota" handling
+    
+    hugetlbfs_{get,put}_quota() are badly named.  They don't interact with the
+    general quota handling code, and they don't much resemble its behaviour.
+    Rather than being about maintaining limits on on-disk block usage by
+    particular users, they are instead about maintaining limits on in-memory
+    page usage (including anonymous MAP_PRIVATE copied-on-write pages)
+    associated with a particular hugetlbfs filesystem instance.
+    
+    Worse, they work by having callbacks to the hugetlbfs filesystem code from
+    the low-level page handling code, in particular from free_huge_page().
+    This is a layering violation of itself, but more importantly, if the
+    kernel does a get_user_pages() on hugepages (which can happen from KVM
+    amongst others), then the free_huge_page() can be delayed until after the
+    associated inode has already been freed.  If an unmount occurs at the
+    wrong time, even the hugetlbfs superblock where the "quota" limits are
+    stored may have been freed.
+    
+    Andrew Barry proposed a patch to fix this by having hugepages, instead of
+    storing a pointer to their address_space and reaching the superblock from
+    there, had the hugepages store pointers directly to the superblock,
+    bumping the reference count as appropriate to avoid it being freed.
+    Andrew Morton rejected that version, however, on the grounds that it made
+    the existing layering violation worse.
+    
+    This is a reworked version of Andrew's patch, which removes the extra, and
+    some of the existing, layering violation.  It works by introducing the
+    concept of a hugepage "subpool" at the lower hugepage mm layer - that is a
+    finite logical pool of hugepages to allocate from.  hugetlbfs now creates
+    a subpool for each filesystem instance with a page limit set, and a
+    pointer to the subpool gets added to each allocated hugepage, instead of
+    the address_space pointer used now.  The subpool has its own lifetime and
+    is only freed once all pages in it _and_ all other references to it (i.e.
+    superblocks) are gone.
+    
+    subpools are optional - a NULL subpool pointer is taken by the code to
+    mean that no subpool limits are in effect.
+    
+    Previous discussion of this bug found in:  "Fix refcounting in hugetlbfs
+    quota handling.". See:  https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/8/11/28 or
+    http://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=126928970510627&w=1
+    
+    v2: Fixed a bug spotted by Hillf Danton, and removed the extra parameter to
+    alloc_huge_page() - since it already takes the vma, it is not necessary.
