Summary
mm/hugetlb: avoid corrupting page->mapping in hugetlb_mcopy_atomic_pte
Details

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

mm/hugetlb: avoid corrupting page->mapping in hugetlbmcopyatomic_pte

In MCOPYATOMICCONTINUE case with a non-shared VMA, pages in the page cache are installed in the ptes. But hugepageaddnewanonrmap is called for them mistakenly because they're not vm_shared. This will corrupt the page->mapping used by page cache code.
