commit 96b96a96 upstream. Error paths in hugetlb_cow() and hugetlb_no_page() may free a newly allocated huge page. If a reservation was associated with the huge page, alloc_huge_page() consumed the reservation while allocating. When the newly allocated page is freed in free_huge_page(), it will increment the global reservation count. However, the reservation entry in the reserve map will remain. This is not an issue for shared mappings as the entry in the reserve map indicates a reservation exists. But, an entry in a private mapping reserve map indicates the reservation was consumed and no longer exists. This results in an inconsistency between the reserve map and the global reservation count. This 'leaks' a reserved huge page. Create a new routine restore_reserve_on_error() to restore the reserve entry in these specific error paths. This routine makes use of a new function vma_add_reservation() which will add a reserve entry for a specific address/page. In general, these error paths were rarely (if ever) taken on most architectures. However, powerpc contained arch specific code that that resulted in an extra fault and execution of these error paths on all private mappings.
