John Stultz 44960f2a7b staging: ashmem: Fix SIGBUS crash when traversing mmaped ashmem pages 
Amit Pundir and Youling in parallel reported crashes with recent
mainline kernels running Android:

  F DEBUG   : *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** ***
  F DEBUG   : Build fingerprint: 'Android/db410c32_only/db410c32_only:Q/OC-MR1/102:userdebug/test-key
  F DEBUG   : Revision: '0'
  F DEBUG   : ABI: 'arm'

  ... <snip> ...
  F DEBUG   : backtrace:
  F DEBUG   :     #00 pc 00001c04  /system/lib/libc.so (memset+48)
  F DEBUG   :     #01 pc 0010c513  /system/lib/libart.so (create_mspace_with_base+82)
  F DEBUG   :     #02 pc 0015c601  /system/lib/libart.so (art::gc::space::DlMallocSpace::CreateMspace(void*, unsigned int, unsigned int)+40)
  F DEBUG   :     #03 pc 0015c3ed  /system/lib/libart.so (art::gc::space::DlMallocSpace::CreateFromMemMap(art::MemMap*, std::__1::basic_string<char, std::__ 1::char_traits<char>, std::__1::allocator<char>> const&, unsigned int, unsigned int, unsigned int, unsigned int, bool)+36)
  ...

This was bisected back to commit bfd40eaff5 ("mm: fix
vma_is_anonymous() false-positives").

create_mspace_with_base() in the trace above, utilizes ashmem, and with
ashmem, for shared mappings we use shmem_zero_setup(), which sets the
vma->vm_ops to &shmem_vm_ops.  But for private ashmem mappings nothing
sets the vma->vm_ops.

Looking at the problematic patch, it seems to add a requirement that one
call vma_set_anonymous() on a vma, otherwise the dummy_vm_ops will be
used.  Using the dummy_vm_ops seem to triggger SIGBUS when traversing
unmapped pages.

Thus, this patch adds a call to vma_set_anonymous() for ashmem private
mappings and seems to avoid the reported problem.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
