Would it catch them faster than syzbot?

OK, then I think the right place to put this check is slightly before
this function is called, to avoid bouncing the folio refcount:

+++ b/mm/memory.c
@@ -3567,6 +3567,12 @@ static vm_fault_t do_wp_page(struct vm_fault *vmf)
return 0;
}
copy:
+ if ((vmf->flags & FAULT_FLAG_VMA_LOCK) && !vma->anon_vma) {
+ pte_unmap_unlock(vmf->pte, vmf->ptl);
+ vma_end_read(vmf->vma);
+ return VM_FAULT_RETRY;
+ }
+
/*
* Ok, we need to copy. Oh, well..
*/
... it compiles. Guess I should figure out the syntax to ask syzbot to
test it.
