CVE-2026-31575

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

mm/userfaultfd: fix hugetlb fault mutex hash calculation

In mfill_atomic_hugetlb(), linear_page_index() is used to calculate the

page index for hugetlb_fault_mutex_hash(). However, linear_page_index()

returns the index in PAGE_SIZE units, while hugetlb_fault_mutex_hash()

expects the index in huge page units. This mismatch means that different

addresses within the same huge page can produce different hash values,

leading to the use of different mutexes for the same huge page. This can

cause races between faulting threads, which can corrupt the reservation

map and trigger the BUG_ON in resv_map_release().

Fix this by introducing hugetlb_linear_page_index(), which returns the

page index in huge page granularity, and using it in place of

linear_page_index().
