Hi Sven,

Would you be willing to try the patch below in your environment?
It addresses the stall I can create with a file that has a VERY large hole.
In addition, it passes libhugetlbfs tests and has run for a while in my
truncate/page fault race stress test. However, it is very early code.
It would be nice to see if it addresses the issue in your environment.

Subject: [PATCH] hugetlb: redo remove_inode_hugepages algorithm for racing
page faults

Previously, remove_inode_hugepages would take the fault mutes for EVERY
index in a file and look for a folio. This included holes in the file.
For very large sparse files, this could result in minutes(or more) or
kernel time. Taking the fault mutex for every index is a requirement if
we want to use it for synchronization with page faults.

This patch adjusts the algorithm slightly to take large holes into
account. It tracks which fault mutexes have been taken so that it will
not needlessly take the same mutex more than once. Also, we skip
looking for folios in holes. Instead, we make a second scan of the file
with a bulk lookup.
