------------------------------------------------------ From: Joao Martins joao.m.martins@oracle.com Subject: mm/hugetlb: fix refs calculation from unaligned @vaddr
commit 82e5d378b0e47 ("mm/hugetlb: refactor subpage recording") refactored the count of subpages but missed an edge case when @vaddr is not aligned to PAGE_SIZE e.g. when close to vma->vm_end. It would then errousnly set @refs to 0 and record_subpages_vmas() wouldn't set the @pages array element to its value, consequently causing the reported null-deref by syzbot.
Fix it by aligning down @vaddr by PAGE_SIZE in @refs calculation.
