s390/mm: Add PTE_MARKER support for hugetlbfs mappings
Commit 8a13897 ("mm: userfaultfd: support UFFDIO_POISON for
hugetlbfs") added support for PTE_MARKER_POISONED for hugetlbfs, but
PTE_MARKER also needs support for swap entries. For s390, swap entries
were only supported on PTE level, not on the PMD/PUD levels that are used
for large hugetlbfs mappings.
Therefore, when writing a PTE_MARKER_POISONED entry, the resulting entry
on PMD/PUD level would be an invalid / empty entry. Further access would
then generate a pagefault loop, instead of the expected SIGBUS. It is a
loop inside the kernel, but interruptible and uffd fault handling also
calls schedule() in between, so at least it won't completely block the
system.
Previous commits prepared support for swap entries on PMD/PUD levels.
PTE_MARKER support for hugetlbfs can now be enabled by simply adding an
extra is_pte_marker() check to huge_pte_none_mostly(). Fault handling
code also needs to be adjusted to expect the VM_FAULT_HWPOISON_LARGE
fault flag, which was not possible on s390 before.
