Subject: [RFC PATCH RESEND 19/28] mm: disallow do_swap_page to handle page faults under VMA lock

From: Suren Baghdasaryan <[email-masked]>
Date: Thu, 1 Sep 2022 10:35:07 -0700

Due to the possibility of do_swap_page dropping mmap_lock, abort fault
handling under VMA lock and retry holding mmap_lock. This can be handled
more gracefully in the future.
