4.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Gerald Schaefer <gerald.schae...@de.ibm.com>
commit ba385c0594e723d41790ecfb12c610e6f90c7785 upstream.
The check for the _SEGMENT_ENTRY_PROTECT bit in gup_huge_pmd() is the
wrong way around. It must not be set for write==1, and not be checked for
write==0. Fix this similar to how it was fixed for ptes long time ago in
commit 25591b070336 ("[S390] fix get_user_pages_fast").
One impact of this bug would be unnecessarily using the gup slow path for
write==0 on r/w mappings. A potentially more severe impact would be that
gup_huge_pmd() will succeed for write==1 on r/o mappings.
