The read-only THP for filesystems would collapse THP for file opened
readonly and mapped with VM_EXEC, the intended usecase is to avoid TLB
miss for large text segment.  But it doesn't restrict the file types so
THP could be collapsed for non-regular file, for example, block device,
if it is opened readonly and mapped with EXEC permission.  This may
cause bugs, like [1] and [2].

This is definitely not intended usecase, so just collapsing THP for regular
file in order to close the attack surface.

The patch is basically based off the proposal from Hugh
(https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/a07564a3-b2fc-9ffe-3ace-3f276075ea5c@google.com/).
It seems Hugh is too busy to prepare the patch for formal submission (I
didn't hear from him by pinging him a couple of times on mailing list),
so I prepared the patch and added his SOB.

Am I misreading this? If we return here for vma->vm_file, the following 
logic (shmem_file(), etc.) would be skipped, no?

Oh, yes, you are right. My mistake.

This doesn't make sense to me.  if vma->vm_file, we already returned,
so this is dead code.

Yes, Song mentioned the same thing. Fixed by an incremental patch.

I has this fix on my test machine, but somehow forgot to fold it into
the original patch. The whole fix was tested by opening /dev/nullb0
readonly and mapping with PROT_EXEC, the THP was not collapsed
anymore.
