6.1-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Jiantao Shan <shanjiantao@xxxxxxxxxxx> commit efb44ff64c95340b06331fc48634b99efc9dd77c upstream. As with most architectures, allow handling of read faults in VMAs that have VM_WRITE but without VM_READ (WRITE implies READ). Otherwise, reading before writing a write-only memory will error while reading after writing everything is fine. BTW, move the VM_EXEC judgement before VM_READ/VM_WRITE to make logic a little clearer.
