* There was a bug in THP, will crash happened due to the following
* reason according to developers:
*
* most VM places are using pmd_none but a few are still using
* pmd_present. The meaning is about the same for the pmd. However
* pmd_present would return the wrong value on PROT_NONE ranges or in
* case of a non reproducible race with split_huge_page.
* When the code using pmd_present gets a false negative, the kernel will
* crash. It's just an annoying DoS with a BUG_ON triggering: no memory
* corruption and no data corruption (nor userland nor kernel).
