With git commitd1874a0c28"s390/mm: make the pxd_offset functions more robust" and a 2-level page table it can now happen that pgd_bad() gets asked to verify a large segment table entry. If the entry is marked as dirty pgd_bad() will incorrectly return true. Change the pgd_bad(), p4d_bad(), pud_bad() and pmd_bad() functions to first verify the table type, return false if the table level is lower than what the function is suppossed to check, return true if the table level is too high, and otherwise check the relevant region and segment table bits. pmd_bad() has to check against ~SEGMENT_ENTRY_BITS for normal page table pointers or ~SEGMENT_ENTRY_BITS_LARGE for large segment table entries. Same for pud_bad() which has to check against ~_REGION_ENTRY_BITS or ~_REGION_ENTRY_BITS_LARGE.

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.
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.
