[mm-hotfixes,v5,2/2] mm: use clear_user_(high)page() for arch with special user folio handling

Commit Message

Zi Yan Dec. 9, 2024, 6:23 p.m. UTC

Some architectures have special handling after clearing user folios:
architectures, which set cpu_dcache_is_aliasing() to true, require
flushing dcache; arc, which sets cpu_icache_is_aliasing() to true, changes
folio->flags to make icache coherent to dcache. So __GFP_ZERO using only
clear_page() is not enough to zero user folios and clear_user_(high)page()
must be used. Otherwise, user data will be corrupted.

Fix it by always clearing user folios with clear_user_(high)page() when
cpu_dcache_is_aliasing() is true or cpu_icache_is_aliasing() is true.
Rename alloc_zeroed() to user_alloc_needs_zeroing() and invert the logic
to clarify its intend.

Fixes: 5708d96da20b ("mm: avoid zeroing user movable page twice with init_on_alloc=1")
