The VMA sequence count has been introduced to allow fast detection of
VMA modification when running a page fault handler without holding
the mmap_sem.

This patch provides protection against the VMA modification done in :
	- madvise()
	- mpol_rebind_policy()
	- vma_replace_policy()
	- change_prot_numa()
	- mlock(), munlock()
	- mprotect()
	- mmap_region()
	- collapse_huge_page()
	- userfaultd registering services

In addition, VMA fields which will be read during the speculative fault
path needs to be written using WRITE_ONCE to prevent write to be split
and intermediate values to be pushed to other CPUs.

In several locations in this patch vm_write_begin(vma) -> 
vm_write_end(vma) is nesting things other than vma->vm_flags, 
vma->vm_policy, etc.  I think it's better to do vm_write_end(vma) as soon 
as the members that the seqcount protects are modified.  In other words, 
this isn't offering protection for vma->vm_userfaultfd_ctx.  There are 
several examples of this in the patch.

Wait, doesn't vma_dup_policy() also need to protect dst->vm_policy?

Shouldn't this also protect vma->vm_flags?

That's true in this particular case, and I could change that to not include the
change to vm_userfaultfd_ctx.
This being said, I don't think this will have a major impact, but I'll make a
close review on this patch to be sure there is too large protected part of code.

Indeed this is not necessary because vma_dup_policy() is called when dst is not

handler. This is not the case of vma_replace_policy, and this is why the
protection are needed here.

Nice catch !
I just found that too while reviewing the entire patch to answer your previous
