[PATCHv6 20/22] thp: wait_split_huge_page(): serialize over i_mmap_mutex too

From: Kirill A. Shutemov
Date: Mon Sep 23 2013 - 08:08:29 EST


We're going to have huge pages backed by files, so we need to modify
wait_split_huge_page() to support that.

We have two options for:
- check whether the page anon or not and serialize only over required
lock;
- always serialize over both locks;

Current implementation, in fact, guarantees that *all* pages on the vma
is not splitting, not only the pages pmd is pointing on.

For now I prefer the second option since it's the safest: we provide the
same level of guarantees.
