has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was

Subject: mm: change huge_ptep_clear_flush() to return the original pte

Patch series "Fix CONT-PTE/PMD size hugetlb issue when unmapping or migrating", v4.

presently, migrating a hugetlb page or unmapping a poisoned hugetlb page, we'll use ptep_clear_flush() and set_pte_at() to nuke the page table entry and remap it, and this is incorrect for CONT-PTE or CONT-PMD size hugetlb page, which will cause potential data consistent issue. This patch set will change to use hugetlb related APIs to fix this issue.

Note: Mike pointed out the huge_ptep_get() will only return the one specific value, and it would not take into account the dirty or young bits of CONT-PTE/PMDs like the huge_ptep_get_and_clear() [1]. This inconsistent issue is not introduced by this patch set, and this issue will be addressed in another thread [2]. Meanwhile the uffd for hugetlb case [3] pointed out by Gerald also needs another patch to address.

This patch (of 3):

It is incorrect to use ptep_clear_flush() to nuke a hugetlb page table when unmapping or migrating a hugetlb page, and will change to use huge_ptep_clear_flush() instead in the following patches.

So this is a preparation patch, which changes the huge_ptep_clear_flush() to return the original pte to help to nuke a hugetlb page table.
