From: Andrea Arcangeli <aarcange@xxxxxxxxxx>
For now, folio_move_anon_rmap() was only used to move a folio to a
different anon_vma after fork(), whereby the root anon_vma stayed
unchanged. For that, it was sufficient to hold the folio lock when
calling folio_move_anon_rmap().
However, we want to make use of folio_move_anon_rmap() to move folios
between VMAs that have a different root anon_vma. As folio_referenced()
performs an RMAP walk without holding the folio lock but only holding the
anon_vma in read mode, holding the folio lock is insufficient.
When moving to an anon_vma with a different root anon_vma, we'll have to
hold both, the folio lock and the anon_vma lock in write mode.
Consequently, whenever we succeeded in folio_lock_anon_vma_read() to
read-lock the anon_vma, we have to re-check if the mapping was changed
in the meantime. If that was the case, we have to retry.
Note that folio_move_anon_rmap() must only be called if the anon page is
exclusive to a process, and must not be called on KSM folios.
This is a preparation for UFFDIO_MOVE, which will hold the folio lock,
the anon_vma lock in write mode, and the mmap_lock in read mode.
