Ouch. Good catch!

Although, I'm not convinced that it caused the issue. Sasha, did you touch the
debugfs handle?

Other option: get rid of debugfs interface, so fault_around_pages() and
fault_around_mask() will always be known compile time.

There's other problem with the debugfs handle: we don't have serialization
between fault_around_bytes_set() and do_fault_around(). It can end up
badly if fault_around_bytes will be changed under do_fault_around()...

I don't think it worth adding the serialization to hot path to protect
against debug interface.
Any thoughts?

Subject: [PATCH] mm, debugfs: workaround undefined behaviour of
 rounddown_pow_of_two(0)

Result of rounddown_pow_of_two(0) is not defined. It can cause a bug if
user will set fault_around_bytes to 0 via debugfs interface.

Let's set fault_around_bytes to PAGE_SIZE if user tries to set it to
something below PAGE_SIZE.
