I still don't really follow the logic in this else if block. Isn't it possible
that finish_fault() gets called with a page from a folio that isn't aligned with
vmf->address?
For example, let's say we have a file who's size is 64K and which is cached in a
single large folio in the page cache. But the file is mapped into a process at
VA 16K to 80K. Let's say we fault on the first page (VA=16K). You will calculate
start=0 and end=64K I think?
Additionally, I think this path will end up mapping the entire folio (as long as
it fits in the VMA). But this bypasses the fault-around configuration. As I
think I mentioned against the RFC, this will inflate the RSS of the process and
can cause behavioural changes as a result. I believe the current advice is to
disable fault-around to prevent this kind of bloat when needed.
It might be that you need a special variant of finish_fault() for shmem?
