This patch was dropped because it was merged into the mm-hotfixes-stable branch
of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm


I sent an updated patch that removes the LRU check completely. Still time to fix that? :)

folio_is_secretmem() states that secretmem folios cannot be LRU folios: so
we may only exit early if we find an LRU folio.  Yet, we exit early if we
find a folio that is not a secretmem folio.

Consequently, folio_is_secretmem() fails to detect secretmem folios and,
therefore, we can succeed in grabbing a secretmem folio during GUP-fast,
crashing the kernel when we later try reading/writing to the folio,
because the folio has been unmapped from the directmap.
