arm64: mm: Fix VM_BUG_ON(mm != &init_mm) for trans_pgd
trans_pgd_create_copy() can hit "VM_BUG_ON(mm != &init_mm)" in the function pmd_populate_kernel(). This is the combined consequence of commit 5de59884ac0e ("arm64: trans_pgd: pass NULL instead of init_mm to *_populate functions"), which replaced &init_mm with NULL and commit 59511cfd08f3 ("arm64: mm: use XN table mapping attributes for user/kernel mappings"), which introduced the VM_BUG_ON. Since the former sounds reasonable, it is better to work on the later. From the perspective of trans_pgd, two groups of functions are considered in the later one: pmd_populate_kernel() mm == NULL should be fixed, else it hits VM_BUG_ON() p?d_populate() mm == NULL means PXN, that is OK, since trans_pgd only copies a linear map, no execution will happen on the map. So it is good enough to just relax VM_BUG_ON() to disregard mm == NULL Fixes: 59511cfd08f3 ("arm64: mm: use XN table mapping attributes for user/kernel mappings") Signed-off-by: Pingfan Liu <kernelfans@gmail.com> Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> # 5.13.x Cc: Ard Biesheuvel <ardb@kernel.org> Cc: James Morse <james.morse@arm.com> Cc: Matthias Brugger <mbrugger@suse.com> Reviewed-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com> Reviewed-by: Pasha Tatashin <pasha.tatashin@soleen.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20211112052214.9086-1-kernelfans@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Will Deacon <will@kernel.org>
