The upstream thp patches for s390 fixed that by adding pmdp_invalidate() and
replacing the pmd_mknotpresent() in mm/huge_memory.c, see git commit 46dcde73.
The pmdp_invalidate() is already included linux-next, so it should be ok to
just change mm/huge_memory.c similar to upstream:
diff --git a/mm/huge_memory.c b/mm/huge_memory.c
index f1c2679..842b6df 100644
--- a/mm/huge_memory.c
+++ b/mm/huge_memory.c
@@ -1537,8 +1537,7 @@ static int __split_huge_page_map(struct page *page,

*/
- set_pmd_at(mm, address, pmd, pmd_mknotpresent(*pmd));
- flush_tlb_range(vma, address, address + HPAGE_PMD_SIZE);
+ pmdp_invalidate(vma, address, pmd);
pmd_populate(mm, pmd, pgtable);
ret = 1;
With this, s390 does not need a pmd_mknotpresent(), and using
set_pmd_at(..., pmd_mknotpresent()) would be wrong on s390 anyway because
we need a flushing operation to change a valid pmd.
