+Subject: mm/pagewalk.c: report holes in hugetlb ranges
+
+From: Jann Horn <jannh@google.com>
+
+commit 373c4557d2aa362702c4c2d41288fb1e54990b7c upstream.
+
+This matters at least for the mincore syscall, which will otherwise copy
+uninitialized memory from the page allocator to userspace.  It is
+probably also a correctness error for /proc/$pid/pagemap, but I haven't
+tested that.
+
+Removing the `walk->hugetlb_entry` condition in walk_hugetlb_range() has
+no effect because the caller already checks for that.
+
+This only reports holes in hugetlb ranges to callers who have specified
+a hugetlb_entry callback.
+
+This issue was found using an AFL-based fuzzer.
+
+v2:
+ - don't crash on ->pte_hole==NULL (Andrew Morton)
+ - add Cc stable (Andrew Morton)
+
+Changed for 4.4/4.9 stable backport:
+ - fix up conflict in the huge_pte_offset() call
+
+Fixes: 1e25a271c8ac ("mincore: apply page table walker on do_mincore()")
