This fixes the below crash: kernel BUG at include/linux/mm.h:2373! cpu 0x5d: Vector: 700 (Program Check) at [c00000003c6e76e0] pc: c000000000581a54: pmd_to_page+0x54/0x80 lr: c00000000058d184: move_hugetlb_page_tables+0x4e4/0x5b0 sp: c00000003c6e7980 msr: 9000000000029033 current = 0xc00000003bd8d980 paca = 0xc000200fff610100 irqmask: 0x03 irq_happened: 0x01 pid = 9349, comm = hugepage-mremap kernel BUG at include/linux/mm.h:2373! move_hugetlb_page_tables+0x4e4/0x5b0 (link register) move_hugetlb_page_tables+0x22c/0x5b0 (unreliable) move_page_tables+0xdbc/0x1010 move_vma+0x254/0x5f0 sys_mremap+0x7c0/0x900 system_call_exception+0x160/0x2c0 the kernel can't use huge_pte_offset before it set the pte entry because a page table lookup check for huge PTE bit in the page table to differentiate between a huge pte entry and a pointer to pte page. A huge_pte_alloc won't mark the page table entry huge and hence kernel should not use huge_pte_offset after a huge_pte_alloc.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
