Subject: [PATCH] x86/mm: fix __swp_entry_to_pte() for Xen PV guests

Normally __swp_entry_to_pte() is never called with a value translating
to a valid PTE. The only known exception is pte_swap_tests(), resulting
in a WARN splat in Xen PV guests, as __pte_to_swp_entry() did
translate the PFN of the valid PTE to a guest local PFN, while
__swp_entry_to_pte() doesn't do the opposite translation.

Fix that by using __pte() in __swp_entry_to_pte() instead of open
coding the native variant of it.

For correctness do the similar conversion for __swp_entry_to_pmd().

This looks sane. Any reason this shouldn't be cc:stable@?

It wasn't missed for several years now, and production kernels will
probably not have CONFIG_DEBUG_VM_PGTABLE set.

In the end I don't mind either way. It was just a bug I stumbled over
during development of my MTRR series (someone mentioned a problem and
I enabled said config option).

Any further comments (apart from "It looks sane")?

PING (3rd one, after 2 months of getting no feedback)!

I'm inclined to carry it just via the Xen tree if x86 maintainers continue
to ignore it ...

x86/mm: Fix __swp_entry_to_pte() for Xen PV guests

Normally __swp_entry_to_pte() is never called with a value translating
to a valid PTE. The only known exception is pte_swap_tests(), resulting
in a WARN splat in Xen PV guests, as __pte_to_swp_entry() did
translate the PFN of the valid PTE to a guest local PFN, while
__swp_entry_to_pte() doesn't do the opposite translation.

Fix that by using __pte() in __swp_entry_to_pte() instead of open
coding the native variant of it.

For correctness do the similar conversion for __swp_entry_to_pmd().
