  HI, Vlastimil
 
  I miss the patch.  when I read the patch. I find the following issue. but I am sure it is right.

      if (unlikely(pmd_trans_unstable(pmd)))
        return 0;
    /*
     * A regular pmd is established and it can't morph into a huge pmd
     * from under us anymore at this point because we hold the mmap_sem
     * read mode and khugepaged takes it in write mode. So now it's
     * safe to run pte_offset_map().
     */
    pte = pte_offset_map(pmd, address);

  after pmd_trans_unstable call,  without any protect method.  by the comments,
  it think the pte_offset_map is safe.    before pte_offset_map call, it still may be
  unstable. it is possible?

  Thanks
