Commit 1a42010cdc26 ("s390/mm: convert to the generic get_user_pages_fast
code") introduced a subtle but severe bug on s390 with gup_fast, due to
dynamic page table folding.

The question "What would it require for the generic code to work for s390"
has already been discussed here
https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20190418100218.0a4afd51@mschwideX1
and ended with a promising approach here
https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20190419153307.4f2911b5@mschwideX1
which in the end unfortunately didn't quite work completely.

We tried to mimic static level folding by changing pgd_offset to always
calculate top level page table offset, and do nothing in folded pXd_offset.
What has been overlooked is that PxD_SIZE/MASK and thus pXd_addr_end do
not reflect this dynamic behaviour, and still act like static 5-level
page tables.


[...]


Fix this by introducing new pXd_addr_end_folded helpers, which take an
additional pXd entry value parameter, that can be used on s390
to determine the correct page table level and return corresponding
end / boundary. With that, the pointer iteration will always
happen in gup_pgd_range for s390. No change for other architectures
introduced.

Not sure pXd_addr_end_folded() is the best understandable name, allthough I don't have any alternative suggestion at the moment. Maybe could be something like pXd_addr_end_fixup() as it will disappear in the next patch, or pXd_addr_end_gup() ?

Also, if it happens to be acceptable to get patch 2 in stable, I think you should switch patch 1 and patch 2 to avoid the step through pXd_addr_end_folded()

What does 'rste' stands for ?
