Bug description:
  mm/shmem.c in the Linux kernel through 3.15.1 does not properly
  implement the interaction between range notification and hole
  punching, which allows local users to cause a denial of service
  (i_mutex hold) by using the mmap system call to access a hole, as
  demonstrated by interfering with intended shmem activity by blocking
  completion of (1) an MADV_REMOVE madvise call or (2) an
  FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE fallocate call.
