Vishal Moola (Oracle) 4f34d6f979 mm/compaction: fix bug in hugetlb handling pathway commit `a84edd52f0` upstream. The compaction code doesn't take references on pages until we're certain we should attempt to handle it. In the hugetlb case, isolate_or_dissolve_huge_page() may return -EBUSY without taking a reference to the folio associated with our pfn. If our folio's refcount drops to 0, compound_nr() becomes unpredictable, making low_pfn and nr_scanned unreliable. The user-visible effect is minimal - this should rarely happen (if ever). Fix this by storing the folio statistics earlier on the stack (just like the THP and Buddy cases). Also revert commit `66fe1cf7f5` ("mm: compaction: use helper compound_nr in isolate_migratepages_block") to make backporting easier.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
