+Subject: mm: Hold a file reference in madvise_remove
+
+From: Andy Lutomirski <luto@amacapital.net>
+
+commit 9ab4233dd08036fe34a89c7dc6f47a8bf2eb29eb upstream.
+
+Otherwise the code races with munmap (causing a use-after-free
+of the vma) or with close (causing a use-after-free of the struct
+file).
+
+The bug was introduced by commit 90ed52ebe481 ("[PATCH] holepunch: fix
+mmap_sem i_mutex deadlock")
+
+[bwh: Backported to 3.2:
+ - Adjust context
+ - madvise_remove() calls vmtruncate_range(), not do_fallocate()]
+[luto: Backported to 3.0: Adjust context]
