To prevent this invalid access, it is necessary to\ncheck the PMD migration entry and return early. In this context, there is\nno need to use pmd_to_swp_entry and pfn_swap_entry_to_page to verify the\nequality of the target folio. Since the PMD migration entry is locked, it\ncannot be served as the target.\n\nMailing list discussion and explanation from Hugh Dickins: \"An anon_vma\nlookup points to a location which may contain the folio of interest, but\nmight instead contain another folio: and weeding out those other folios is\nprecisely what the \"folio != pmd_folio((*pmd)\" check (and the \"risk of\nreplacing the wrong folio\" comment a few lines above it) is for.\"\n\nBUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ffffea60001db008\nCPU: 0 UID: 0 PID: 2199114 Comm: tee Not tainted 6.14.0+ #4 NONE\nHardware name: QEMU
