What about CC stable and a Fixes tag, would it be applicable here?


Yes this is candidate for stable so let's add:
Cc: <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

I do not find a good candidate for a Fixes tag.

How bout a version range where the bug needs to be fixed then?


The distinction between mapped and non-mapped old page was introduced in 2ebba6b7e1d9 ("mm: unmapped page migration avoid unmap+remap overhead") so at least it applies to stable 4.4+.

Before that patch there was always a call to remove_migration_ptes() but I cannot conclude if those earlier versions actually will reach the flush_dcache_page call if the old page was unmapped.


Should I submit a V2 patch with CC stable for v4.4+ ?
