Subject[PATCH 3.12 71/72] x86/mm/hotplug: Pass sync_global_pgds() a correct argument in remove_pagetable()
Date
From: Yasuaki Ishimatsu <isimatu.yasuaki@jp.fujitsu.com>

3.12-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

===============

commit 5255e0a79fcc0ff47b387af92bd9ef5729b1b859 upstream.

When hot-adding memory after hot-removing memory, following call
traces are shown:

kernel BUG at arch/x86/mm/init_64.c:206!

The patch-set fixes the issue.

This patch (of 2):

remove_pagetable() gets start argument and passes the argument
to sync_global_pgds(). In this case, the argument must not be
modified. If the argument is modified and passed to
sync_global_pgds(), sync_global_pgds() does not correctly
synchronize PGD to PGD entries of all processes MM since
synchronized range of memory [start, end] is wrong.

Unfortunately the start argument is modified in
remove_pagetable(). So this patch fixes the issue.
