Mike Kravetz b1c2d0ded4 hugetlb: revert use of page_cache_next_miss() 
commit fd4aed8d98 upstream.

Ackerley Tng reported an issue with hugetlbfs fallocate as noted in the
Closes tag.  The issue showed up after the conversion of hugetlb page
cache lookup code to use page_cache_next_miss.  User visible effects are:

- hugetlbfs fallocate incorrectly returns -EEXIST if pages are presnet
  in the file.
- hugetlb pages will not be included in core dumps if they need to be
  brought in via GUP.
- userfaultfd UFFDIO_COPY will not notice pages already present in the
  cache.  It may try to allocate a new page and potentially return
  ENOMEM as opposed to EEXIST.

Revert the use page_cache_next_miss() in hugetlb code.

IMPORTANT NOTE FOR STABLE BACKPORTS:
This patch will apply cleanly to v6.3.  However, due to the change of
filemap_get_folio() return values, it will not function correctly.  This
patch must be modified for stable backports.

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 Restructured Text 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.
