Hi,
LTP move_pages12 [1] started failing recently.
The test maps/unmaps some anonymous private huge pages
and migrates them between 2 nodes. This now reliably
hits NULL ptr deref:

Suspected commit is:
b43a99900559 ("hugetlbfs: use i_mmap_rwsem for more pmd sharing synchronization")
which adds to unmap_and_move_huge_page():
+ struct address_space *mapping = page_mapping(hpage);
+
+ /*
+ * try_to_unmap could potentially call huge_pmd_unshare.
+ * Because of this, take semaphore in write mode here and
+ * set TTU_RMAP_LOCKED to let lower levels know we have
+ * taken the lock.
+ */
+ i_mmap_lock_write(mapping);
If I'm reading this right, 'mapping' will be NULL for anon mappings.
Running same test with s/MAP_PRIVATE/MAP_SHARED/ leads to user-space
hanging at:
