mm: fix NULL pointer dereference in wp_page_reuse()
The vmf->page can be NULL when the wp_page_reuse() is invoked by wp_pfn_shared(), it will cause the following panic: BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 000000000000008 #PF: supervisor read access in kernel mode #PF: error_code(0x0000) - not-present page PGD 0 P4D 0 Oops: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP PTI CPU: 18 PID: 923 Comm: Xorg Not tainted 5.19.0-rc8.bm.1-amd64 #263 Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS rel-1.14.0-0-g14 RIP: 0010:_compound_head+0x0/0x40 [...] Call Trace: wp_page_reuse+0x1c/0xa0 do_wp_page+0x1a5/0x3f0 __handle_mm_fault+0x8cf/0xd20 handle_mm_fault+0xd5/0x2a0 do_user_addr_fault+0x1d0/0x680 exc_page_fault+0x78/0x170 asm_exc_page_fault+0x22/0x30 To fix it, this patch performs a NULL pointer check before dereferencing the vmf->page.
