Such PMDs are created when free_kernel_image_pages() frees regions larger than 2Mb. In this case, a part of the freed memory is mapped with PMDs and the set_memory_np_noalias() -> ... -> __change_page_attr() sequence will mark the PMD as not present rather than wipe it completely. Have kern_addr_valid() check whether higher level page table entries are present before trying to dereference them to fix this issue and to avoid similar issues in the future. Stable backporting note: ------------------------ Note that the stable marking is for all active stable branches because there could be cases where pagetable entries exist but are not valid - see 9a14aefc1d28 ("x86: cpa, fix lookup_address"), for example. So make sure to be on the safe side here and use pXY_present() accessors rather than pXY_none() which could #GP when accessing pages in the direct map. Also see: c40a56a7818c ("x86/mm/init: Remove freed kernel image areas from alias mapping") for more info.
