Jan Kara 1b7ff5208d mm: Preserve _PAGE_DEVMAP across mprotect() calls
commit 4628a64591 upstream.

Currently _PAGE_DEVMAP bit is not preserved in mprotect(2) calls. As a
result we will see warnings such as:

BUG: Bad page map in process JobWrk0013  pte:800001803875ea25 pmd:7624381067

when mprotect(2) gets used on DAX mappings. Also there is a wide variety
of other failures that can result from the missing _PAGE_DEVMAP flag
when the area gets used by get_user_pages() later.

Fix the problem by including _PAGE_DEVMAP in a set of flags that get
preserved by mprotect(2).

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

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
