Qi Zheng cdb281e638 mm: fix NULL pointer dereference in wp_page_reuse()
The vmf->page can be NULL when the wp_page_reuse() is invoked by
wp_pfn_shared(), it will cause the following panic:

  BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 000000000000008
  #PF: supervisor read access in kernel mode
  #PF: error_code(0x0000) - not-present page
  PGD 0 P4D 0
  Oops: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP PTI

To fix it, this patch performs a NULL pointer check before dereferencing
the vmf->page.

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.
