[PATCH 09/46] mm/rmap: handle device-exclusive entries in folio_referenced_one()

[sashiko-bot at kernel.org]

> page_vma_mapped_walk() can return non-present device-exclusive entries,
> but folio_referenced_one() passes them to PTE young-bit accessors that
> require present PTEs.
> 
> We must neither call clear_flush_young_ptes_notify() nor
> folio_pte_batch() with non-present entries. For example, clearing the
> young bit on non-present PTEs can corrupt the entry: on arm64
> PTE_AF overlaps the swap type, so clearing it turns a device-exclusive
> entry into an ordinary swap entry.
> 
> folio_pte_batch() will VM_WARN_ON_FOLIO.
> 
> Apply the same approach as the previous fixes to e.g., damon_ptep_mkold():
> treat these entries as old from the CPU's perspective and obtain their
> young state through the MMU notifier.
> 
> Skip PTE batching and MGLRU look-around for non-present entries, and
> don't modify non-present PTEs.
> 
> Fixes: b756a3b5e7ea ("mm: device exclusive memory access")
