+mm: fix page table unmap for stack guard page properly
+
+We do in fact need to unmap the page table _before_ doing the whole
+stack guard page logic, because if it is needed (mainly 32-bit x86 with
+PAE and CONFIG_HIGHPTE, but other architectures may use it too) then it
+will do a kmap_atomic/kunmap_atomic.
+
+And those kmaps will create an atomic region that we cannot do
+allocations in. However, the whole stack expand code will need to do
+anon_vma_prepare() and vma_lock_anon_vma() and they cannot do that in an
+atomic region.
+
+Now, a better model might actually be to do the anon_vma_prepare() when
+_creating_ a VM_GROWSDOWN segment, and not have to worry about any of
+this at page fault time. But in the meantime, this is the
+straightforward fix for the issue.
+
+See https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16588 for details.

+mm: fix up some user-visible effects of the stack guard page
+
+This commit makes the stack guard page somewhat less visible to user
+space. It does this by:
+
+ - not showing the guard page in /proc/<pid>/maps
+
+ It looks like lvm-tools will actually read /proc/self/maps to figure
+ out where all its mappings are, and effectively do a specialized
+ "mlockall()" in user space. By not showing the guard page as part of
+ the mapping (by just adding PAGE_SIZE to the start for grows-up
+ pages), lvm-tools ends up not being aware of it.
+
+ - by also teaching the _real_ mlock() functionality not to try to lock
+ the guard page.
+
+ That would just expand the mapping down to create a new guard page,
+ so there really is no point in trying to lock it in place.
+
+It would perhaps be nice to show the guard page specially in
+/proc/<pid>/maps (or at least mark grow-down segments some way), but
+let's not open ourselves up to more breakage by user space from programs
+that depends on the exact deails of the 'maps' file.
+
+Special thanks to Henrique de Moraes Holschuh for diving into lvm-tools
+source code to see what was going on with the whole new warning.
