Hi Robin,

In removing the pagetable-wide lock, we gained the possibility of the
vanishingly unlikely case where we have a race between two concurrent
unmappers splitting the same block entry. The logic to handle this is
fairly straightforward - whoever loses the race frees their partial
next-level table and instead dereferences the winner's newly-installed
entry in order to fall back to a regular unmap, which intentionally
echoes the pre-existing case of recursively splitting a 1GB block down
to 4KB pages by installing a full table of 2MB blocks first.

Unfortunately, the chump who implemented that logic failed to update the
condition check for that fallback, meaning that if said race occurs at
the last level (where the loser's unmap_idx is valid) then the unmap
won't actually happen. Fix that to properly account for both the race
and recursive cases.

Well spotted! Did you just find this by inspection?

Indeed - I just kept seeing this bit in the context of the other patches and thinking "hang on, how do we actually use that new tablep after the deref?".

IIRC I actually implemented the new logic for v7s first, so clearly made the blunder in adding the recursive case when porting the change to LPAE.

Can we tidy up the control flow a bit here to avoid re-checking the status
of the cmpxchg? See below.

Sure, I just made the minimal change for correctness so as not to overcomplicate matters, but I'm pretty sure that diff looks correct. Feel free to squash it in if you're planning on taking this (yes it's nominally a fix, but it's absolutely non-urgent on account of nobody will ever realistically hit this).

Robin.
