commit 8790c71a18e5d2d93532ae250bcf5eddbba729cd upstream.

As a result of commit 5606e3877ad8 ("mm: numa: Migrate on reference
policy"), /proc/&lt;pid&gt;/numa_maps prints the mempolicy for any &lt;pid&gt; as
"prefer:N" for the local node, N, of the process reading the file.

This should only be printed when the mempolicy of &lt;pid&gt; is
MPOL_PREFERRED for node N.

If the process is actually only using the default mempolicy for local
node allocation, make sure "default" is printed as expected.

<title>mm/mempolicy: correct putback method for isolate pages if failed</title>

commit b0e5fd7359f1ce8db4ccb862b3aa80d2f2cbf4d0 upstream.

queue_pages_range() isolates hugetlbfs pages and putback_lru_pages()
can't handle these.  We should change it to putback_movable_pages().

Naoya said that it is worth going into stable, because it can break
in-use hugepage list.

new_vma_page() is called only by page migration called from do_mbind(),
where pages to be migrated are queued into a pagelist by
queue_pages_range().  queue_pages_range() confirms that a queued page
belongs to some vma, so !vma case is not supposed to be happen.  This
patch adds BUG_ON() to catch this unexpected case.

The function check_range() (and its family) is not well-named, because it
does not only checking something, but moving pages from list to list to do
page migration for them.  So queue_pages_*range is more desirable name.

Extend do_mbind() to handle vma with VM_HUGETLB set.  We will be able to
migrate hugepage with mbind(2) after applying the enablement patch which
comes later in this series.

Extend check_range() to handle vma with VM_HUGETLB set.  We will be able
to migrate hugepage with migrate_pages(2) after applying the enablement
patch which comes later in this series.

Note that for larger hugepages (covered by pud entries, 1GB for x86_64 for
example), we simply skip it now.

Note that using pmd_huge/pud_huge assumes that hugepages are pointed to by
pmd/pud.  This is not true in some architectures implementing hugepage
with other mechanisms like ia64, but it's OK because pmd_huge/pud_huge
simply return 0 in such arch and page walker simply ignores such
hugepages.

Simple cleanup.  Every user of vma_set_policy() does the same work, this
looks a bit annoying imho.  And the new trivial helper which does
mpol_dup() + vma_set_policy() to simplify the callers.

vma_adjust() does vma_set_policy(vma, vma_policy(next)) and this
is doubly wrong:

1. This leaks vma-&gt;vm_policy if it is not NULL and not equal to
   next-&gt;vm_policy.

   This can happen if vma_merge() expands "area", not prev (case 8).

2. This sets the wrong policy if vma_merge() joins prev and area,
   area is the vma the caller needs to update and it still has the
   old policy.

Revert commit 1444f92c8498 ("mm: merging memory blocks resets
mempolicy") which introduced these problems.

Change mbind_range() to recheck mpol_equal() after vma_merge() to fix
the problem that commit tried to address.

Currently, n_new is wrongly initialized.  start and end parameter are
inverted.  Let's fix it.
