H A Dhugetlb.ce8569dd2 Tue Jan 21 17:49:09 CST 2014 Andreas Sandberg <andreas@sandberg.pp.se> mm/hugetlb.c: call MMU notifiers when copying a hugetlb page range

When copy_hugetlb_page_range() is called to copy a range of hugetlb
mappings, the secondary MMUs are not notified if there is a protection
downgrade, which breaks COW semantics in KVM.

This patch adds the necessary MMU notifier calls.
