Right yeah, we could create a memfd with MFD_HUGETLB for instance and mount
that...
Perhaps somebody could propose the 6.13 change (as this series is just
focused on the hotfix)?
Note that we absolutely plan to try to merge this in 6.12 (it is a critical
fix for a few separate issues).
I guess since we already have something in the arm64 tree adding
MAP_HUGETLB we could rebase that and add a is_file_hugepages() there to
cover off that case too?
(Though I note that shm_file_operations_huge also sets FOP_HUGE_PAGES which
this predicate picks up, not sure if we're ok wtih that? But discussion
better had I think in whichever thread this hugetlb change came from
perhaps?)
Catalin, perhaps?

Thanks all!
