Since commite641a31783("KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Unify dirty page map between HPT and radix", 2017-10-26), kvm_unmap_radix() computes the number of PAGE_SIZEd pages being unmapped and passes it to kvmppc_update_dirty_map(), which expects to be passed the page size instead. Consequently it will only mark one system page dirty even when a large page (for example a THP page) is being unmapped. The consequence of this is that part of the THP page might not get copied during live migration, resulting in memory corruption for the guest. This fixes it by computing and passing the page size in kvm_unmap_radix().

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.
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.
