Peter Xu 4eae4efa2c hugetlb: do early cow when page pinned on src mm 
This is the last missing piece of the COW-during-fork effort when there're
pinned pages found.  One can reference 70e806e4e6 ("mm: Do early cow for
pinned pages during fork() for ptes", 2020-09-27) for more information,
since we do similar things here rather than pte this time, but just for
hugetlb.

Note that after Jason's recent work on 57efa1fe59 ("mm/gup: prevent
gup_fast from racing with COW during fork", 2020-12-15) which is safer and
easier to understand, we're safe now within the whole copy_page_range()
against gup-fast, we don't need the wr-protect trick that proposed in
70e806e4e6 anymore.

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.
