From: Chen LinX <linx.z.chen@xxxxxxxxx>

commit 3017f079efd6af199b0852b5c425364513db460e upstream.

When walk_page_range walk a memory map's page tables, it'll skip
VM_PFNMAP area, then variable 'next' will to assign to vma->vm_end, it
maybe larger than 'end'. In next loop, 'addr' will be larger than
'next'. Then in /proc/XXXX/pagemap file reading procedure, the 'addr'
will growing forever in pagemap_pte_range, pte_to_pagemap_entry will
access the wrong pte.

BUG: Bad page map in process procrank pte:8437526f pmd:785de067
addr:9108d000 vm_flags:00200073 anon_vma:f0d99020 mapping: (null) index:9108d
