This BUG is the VM_BUG_ON(!in_atomic() && !irqs_disabled()) assertion in
folio_ref_try_add_rcu() for non-SMP kernel.

The process_vm_readv() calls GUP to pin the THP. An optimization for
pinning THP instroduced by commit 57edfcfd34 ("mm/gup: accelerate thp
gup even for "pages != NULL"") calls try_grab_folio() to pin the THP,
but try_grab_folio() is supposed to be called in atomic context for
non-SMP kernel, for example, irq disabled or preemption disabled, due to
the optimization introduced by commit e286781d5f ("mm: speculative
page references").

The commit efa7df3e3bb5 ("mm: align larger anonymous mappings on THP
boundaries") is not actually the root cause although it was bisected to.
It just makes the problem exposed more likely.

The follow up discussion suggested the optimization for non-SMP kernel
may be out-dated and not worth it anymore [1].  So removing the
optimization to silence the BUG.

However calling try_grab_folio() in GUP slow path actually is
unnecessary, so the following patch will clean this up.

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.
