mm/debug.c: fix __dump_page() for poisoned pages
Evaluating page_mapping() on a poisoned page ends up dereferencing junk and making PF_POISONED_CHECK() considerably crashier than intended: Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 0000000000000006 Mem abort info: ESR = 0x96000005 Exception class = DABT (current EL), IL = 32 bits SET = 0, FnV = 0 EA = 0, S1PTW = 0 Data abort info: ISV = 0, ISS = 0x00000005 CM = 0, WnR = 0 user pgtable: 4k pages, 39-bit VAs, pgdp = 00000000c2f6ac38 [0000000000000006] pgd=0000000000000000, pud=0000000000000000 Internal error: Oops: 96000005 [#1] PREEMPT SMP Modules linked in: CPU: 2 PID: 491 Comm: bash Not tainted 5.0.0-rc1+ #1 Hardware name: ARM LTD ARM Juno Development Platform/ARM Juno Development Platform, BIOS EDK II Dec 17 2018 pstate: 00000005 (nzcv daif -PAN -UAO) pc : page_mapping+0x18/0x118 lr : __dump_page+0x1c/0x398 Process bash (pid: 491, stack limit = 0x000000004ebd4ecd) Call trace: page_mapping+0x18/0x118 __dump_page+0x1c/0x398 dump_page+0xc/0x18 remove_store+0xbc/0x120 dev_attr_store+0x18/0x28 sysfs_kf_write+0x40/0x50 kernfs_fop_write+0x130/0x1d8 __vfs_write+0x30/0x180 vfs_write+0xb4/0x1a0 ksys_write+0x60/0xd0 __arm64_sys_write+0x18/0x20 el0_svc_common+0x94/0xf8 el0_svc_handler+0x68/0x70 el0_svc+0x8/0xc Code: f9400401 d1000422 f240003f 9a801040 (f9400402) ---[ end trace cdb5eb5bf435cecb ]--- Fix that by not inspecting the mapping until we've determined that it's likely to be valid.
