    powerpc: Do not assert pte_locked for hugepage PTE entries · af3e4aca
    Mel Gorman 提交于
    With CONFIG_DEBUG_VM, an assertion is made when changing the protection
    flags of a PTE that the PTE is locked. Huge pages use a different pagetable
    format and the assertion is bogus and will always trigger with a bug looking
    something like

    This patch fixes the problem by not asseting the PTE is locked for VMAs
    backed by huge pages.
