Thanks for the report.
The 'good news' is that mapping can not be null in the code path above.
The reasons are:
- The page is locked upon entry to the routine
- Earlier in the routine there is the check:
if (!page_mapped(hpage))
return true;
For huge pages (which are processed in the else clause above), page_mapped
implies page->mapping != null.
However, the routine hwpoison_user_mappings handles all page types. The
page_mapped check is actually there to check for pages in the swap cache.
It is just coincidence that it also implies mapping != null for huge pages.
It would be better to make an explicit check for mapping != null before
calling i_mmap_lock_write/try_to_unmap. In this way, unrelated changes to
code above will not potentially lead to the possibility of mapping == null.
I'm not sure what is the best way to handle this. Below is an updated version
of the patch sent to Andrew. I can also provide a simple patch to the patch
if that is easier.

hugetlbfs: use i_mmap_rwsem for more pmd sharing synchronization
While looking at BUGs associated with invalid huge page map counts,
it was discovered and observed that a huge pte pointer could become
'invalid' and point to another task's page table. Consider the
following:
A task takes a page fault on a shared hugetlbfs file and calls
huge_pte_alloc to get a ptep. Suppose the returned ptep points to a
shared pmd.
Now, another task truncates the hugetlbfs file. As part of truncation,
it unmaps everyone who has the file mapped. If the range being
truncated is covered by a shared pmd, huge_pmd_unshare will be called.
For all but the last user of the shared pmd, huge_pmd_unshare will
clear the pud pointing to the pmd. If the task in the middle of the
page fault is not the last user, the ptep returned by huge_pte_alloc
now points to another task's page table or worse. This leads to bad
things such as incorrect page map/reference counts or invalid memory
references.
To fix, expand the use of i_mmap_rwsem as follows:
- i_mmap_rwsem is held in read mode whenever huge_pmd_share is called.
huge_pmd_share is only called via huge_pte_alloc, so callers of
huge_pte_alloc take i_mmap_rwsem before calling. In addition, callers
of huge_pte_alloc continue to hold the semaphore until finished with
the ptep.
- i_mmap_rwsem is held in write mode whenever huge_pmd_unshare is called.
