PMD sharing can only be done in PUD_SIZE-aligned pieces of VMAs; however, it is possible that HugeTLB VMAs are split without unsharing the PMDs first. Without this fix, it is possible to hit the uffd-wp-related WARN_ON_ONCE in hugetlb_change_protection [1]. The key there is that hugetlb_unshare_all_pmds will not attempt to unshare PMDs in non-PUD_SIZE-aligned sections of the VMA. It might seem ideal to unshare in hugetlb_vm_op_open, but we need to unshare in both the new and old VMAs, so unsharing in hugetlb_vm_op_split seems natural.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
