OK, here's a RFC patch to hopefully help get us somewhere. I went for
Option1, as I didn't see anyone using VM_MIXEDMAP also for LRU pages,
and Option2 was ugly to implement and also seemed quite arbitrary. I'm
not sure if making VM_MIXEDMAP also non-mergeable this way is an issue
though.

Actually a nice third option would be that the vma in question would
include also another flag (other than VM_MIXEDMAP) that would declare it
can contain compound pages. But I didn't find any such rule documented,
perhaps VM_IO would be a candidate?

I added people that touched VM_MIXEDMAP in the past to CC.

Subject: [PATCH] mm: include VM_MIXEDMAP flag in the VM_SPECIAL list to avoid
 m(un)locking

Daniel Borkmann reported a bug with VM_BUG_ON assertions failing where
munlock_vma_pages_range() thinks it's unexpectedly in the middle of a THP page.
This can be reproduced in tools/testing/selftests/net/ by running make and
then ./psock_tpacket.

The problem is that an order=2 compound page (allocated by
alloc_one_pg_vec_page() is part of the munlocked VM_MIXEDMAP vma (mapped by
packet_mmap()) and mistaken for a THP page and assumed to be order=9.

The checks for THP in munlock came with commit ff6a6da60b89 ("mm: accelerate
munlock() treatment of THP pages"), i.e. since 3.9, but did not trigger a bug.
It just makes munlock_vma_pages_range() skip such compound pages until the next
512-pages-aligned page, when it encounters a head page. This is however not a
problem for vma's where mlocking has no effect anyway, but it can distort the
accounting.
Since commit 7225522bb ("mm: munlock: batch non-THP page isolation and
munlock+putback using pagevec") this can trigger a VM_BUG_ON in PageTransHuge()
check.

This patch fixes the issue by adding VM_MIXEDMAP flag to VM_SPECIAL - a list of
flags that make vma's non-mlockable and non-mergeable. The reasoning is that
VM_MIXEDMAP vma's are similar to VM_PFNMAP, which is already on the VM_SPECIAL
list, and both are intended for non-LRU pages where mlocking makes no sense
anyway.
