[PATCH 4.4 38/84] futex: Fix futex lock the wrong page

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Thu Jun 20 2019 - 14:01:06 EST


From: ZhangXiaoxu <zhangxiaoxu5@xxxxxxxxxx>

The upstram commit 65d8fc777f6d ("futex: Remove requirement
for lock_page() in get_futex_key()") use variable 'page' as
the page head, when merge it to stable branch, the variable
`page_head` is page head.

In the stable branch, the variable `page` not means the page
head, when lock the page head, we should lock 'page_head',
rather than 'page'.

It maybe lead a hung task problem.
