mm/hugetlb.c: don't call region_abort if region_chg fails
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Changes to hugetlbfs reservation maps is a two step process.  The first
step is a call to region_chg to determine what needs to be changed, and
prepare that change.  This should be followed by a call to call to
region_add to commit the change, or region_abort to abort the change.

The error path in hugetlb_reserve_pages called region_abort after a
failed call to region_chg.  As a result, the adds_in_progress counter in
the reservation map is off by 1.  This is caught by a VM_BUG_ON in
resv_map_release when the reservation map is freed.

syzkaller fuzzer (when using an injected kmalloc failure) found this
bug, that resulted in the following:
