Kefeng Wang f5d09de9f1 mm: use aligned address in copy_user_gigantic_page()
In current kernel, hugetlb_wp() calls copy_user_large_folio() with the
fault address.  Where the fault address may be not aligned with the huge
page size.  Then, copy_user_large_folio() may call
copy_user_gigantic_page() with the address, while
copy_user_gigantic_page() requires the address to be huge page size
aligned.  So, this may cause memory corruption or information leak,
addtional, use more obvious naming 'addr_hint' instead of 'addr' for
copy_user_gigantic_page().

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 reStructuredText 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.
