------------------------------------------------------ From: Hugh Dickins hughd@google.com Subject: mm/khugepaged: collapse_shmem() stop if punched or truncated
Huge tmpfs testing showed that although collapse_shmem() recognizes a concurrently truncated or hole-punched page correctly, its handling of holes was liable to refill an emptied extent. Add check to stop that.
