The first bad commit is 0cef0bb836e mm: clear uffd-wp PTE/PMD state on mremap(), which was introduced in v6.13.

[Cc'ing Ryan, Mikołaj, David and Peter]

I was able to reliably reproduce this (with the reproducer provided by syzbot) and performed bisection.

The first bad commit is 0cef0bb836e mm: clear uffd-wp PTE/PMD state on mremap(), which was introduced in v6.13.

Okay, so we're hitting the

	if (WARN_ON_ONCE(!pmd_none(*new_pmd)))
		return false;

in move_normal_pmd().

Given that the reproducer involves allocation fault injection during move_page_tables(), I assume we run into this warning when we are trying to restore our previous state, so when we call move_page_tables() the
second time from copy_vma_and_data().

Something when moving stuff back after a failed PTE table allocation is broken.

Ah, maybe I know what happens.

When we move the first time, we check "vma_has_uffd_without_event_remap(orig_vma)" and see that "yes, this thing has uffd" and decide to move PTE level

When we move back, we check "vma_has_uffd_without_event_remap(new_vma)" and see that "no, this thing does not have uffd" and decide to move PMD level.

But the original PTE table is still there ...

As a side-note: It's confusing to call vma_has_uffd_without_event_remap() to make a decision during mremap to handle WP, when WP might not even be active. We should likely slap in a uffd-wp check on the VMA as a follow-up cleanup.
