The patch titled ("perf/core: Avoid put_page() when GUP fails") has been
merged into linus/master as commit
4716023a8f6a0f4a28047f14dd7ebdc319606b84.
The patch fixes an issue present in all v4.14+ kernels that can cause
page reference count underflow, which can lead to unintentional page
sharing.
The patch did not have cc: stable footer, so I'm manually requesting
-stable inclusion into v4.14+.
There are some trivial conflicts in older kernels. I'd be happy to
review/test, if that's useful.
