Ryusuke Konishi 782e53d0c1 nilfs2: prevent general protection fault in nilfs_clear_dirty_page()
In a syzbot stress test that deliberately causes file system errors on
nilfs2 with a corrupted disk image, it has been reported that
nilfs_clear_dirty_page() called from nilfs_clear_dirty_pages() can cause a
general protection fault.

In nilfs_clear_dirty_pages(), when looking up dirty pages from the page
cache and calling nilfs_clear_dirty_page() for each dirty page/folio
retrieved, the back reference from the argument page to "mapping" may have
been changed to NULL (and possibly others).  It is necessary to check this
after locking the page/folio.

So, fix this issue by not calling nilfs_clear_dirty_page() on a page/folio
after locking it in nilfs_clear_dirty_pages() if the back reference
"mapping" from the page/folio is different from the "mapping" that held
the page/folio just before.

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.
