3.12-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Linus Torvalds <[email protected]> commit f12d5bfceb7e1f9051563381ec047f7f13956c3c upstream. The hugepage code had the exact same bug that regular pages had in commit 7485d0d3758e ("futexes: Remove rw parameter from get_futex_key()"). The regular page case was fixed by commit 9ea71503a8ed ("futex: Fix regression with read only mappings"), but the transparent hugepage case (added in a5b338f2b0b1: "thp: update futex compound knowledge") case remained broken. Found by Dave Jones and his trinity tool.
