Commit9acad7ba3e("hugetlb: use vmf_anon_prepare() instead of anon_vma_prepare()") may bailout after allocating a folio if we do not hold the mmap lock. When this occurs, vmf_anon_prepare() will release the vma lock. Hugetlb then attempts to call restore_reserve_on_error(), which depends on the vma lock being held. We can move vmf_anon_prepare() prior to the folio allocation in order to avoid calling restore_reserve_on_error() without the vma lock.

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 reStructuredText 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.
