commit d417b49fff3e2f21043c834841e8623a6098741d upstream. It is not safe to check page->index without holding the page lock. It can be changed if the page is moved between the swap cache and the page cache for a shmem file, for example. There is a VM_BUG_ON below which checks page->index is correct after taking the page 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 Restructured Text 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.
