mm: fix trying to reclaim unevictable lru page when calling madvise_p…
…ageout Recently, I hit the following issue when running upstream. kernel BUG at mm/vmscan.c:1521! invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP KASAN PTI CPU: 0 PID: 23385 Comm: syz-executor.6 Not tainted 5.4.0-rc4+ #1 RIP: 0010:shrink_page_list+0x12b6/0x3530 mm/vmscan.c:1521 Call Trace: reclaim_pages+0x499/0x800 mm/vmscan.c:2188 madvise_cold_or_pageout_pte_range+0x58a/0x710 mm/madvise.c:453 walk_pmd_range mm/pagewalk.c:53 [inline] walk_pud_range mm/pagewalk.c:112 [inline] walk_p4d_range mm/pagewalk.c:139 [inline] walk_pgd_range mm/pagewalk.c:166 [inline] __walk_page_range+0x45a/0xc20 mm/pagewalk.c:261 walk_page_range+0x179/0x310 mm/pagewalk.c:349 madvise_pageout_page_range mm/madvise.c:506 [inline] madvise_pageout+0x1f0/0x330 mm/madvise.c:542 madvise_vma mm/madvise.c:931 [inline] __do_sys_madvise+0x7d2/0x1600 mm/madvise.c:1113 do_syscall_64+0x9f/0x4c0 arch/x86/entry/common.c:290 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x49/0xbe madvise_pageout() accesses the specified range of the vma and isolates them, then runs shrink_page_list() to reclaim its memory. But it also isolates the unevictable pages to reclaim. Hence, we can catch the cases in shrink_page_list(). The root cause is that we scan the page tables instead of specific LRU list. and so we need to filter out the unevictable lru pages from our end.
