[Impact]
Missing TLB flush on hugetlb unmapping may allow a different process to
access another process memory, as long as it is using hugetlb mappings.
[Test case]
POC from the link above was used to test it on amd64.
Built tested on other architectures so far. Will test on them as time allows.
[Potential regression]
hugetlb users may regress.
[Notice]
Other backports are in progress and will be tested on other architectures
as well.
