Subject: mm: thp: avoid false positive VM_BUG_ON_PAGE in page_move_anon_rmap()
From: Kirill A. Shutemov <[email protected]>
commit 0798d3c022dc63eb0ec02b511e1f76ca8411ef8e upstream.
If page_move_anon_rmap() is refiling a pmd-splitted THP mapped in a tail page from a pte, the "address" must be THP aligned in order for the page->index bugcheck to pass in the CONFIG_DEBUG_VM=y builds.
