In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

mm: hugetlb: fix UAF in hugetlb_handle_userfault

The vma_lock and hugetlb_fault_mutex are dropped before handling userfault
and reacquire them again after handle_userfault(), but reacquire the
vma_lock could lead to UAF[1,2] due to the following race,

hugetlb_fault
  hugetlb_no_page
    /*unlock vma_lock */
    hugetlb_handle_userfault
      handle_userfault
        /* unlock mm->mmap_lock*/
                                           vm_mmap_pgoff
                                             do_mmap
                                               mmap_region
                                                 munmap_vma_range
                                                   /* clean old vma */
        /* lock vma_lock again  <--- UAF */
    /* unlock vma_lock */

Since the vma_lock will unlock immediately after
hugetlb_handle_userfault(), let's drop the unneeded lock and unlock in
hugetlb_handle_userfault() to fix the issue.
