Chuansheng Liu e79b2b2aad fbdev: defio: fix the pagelist corruption
[ Upstream commit 856082f021a28221db2c32bd0531614a8382be67 ]

Easily hit the below list corruption:
==
list_add corruption. prev->next should be next (ffffffffc0ceb090), but
was ffffec604507edc8. (prev=ffffec604507edc8).

Figure out the race happens when one process is adding &page->lru into
the pagelist tail in fb_deferred_io_mkwrite(), another process is
re-initializing the same &page->lru in fb_deferred_io_fault(), which is
not protected by the lock.

This fix is to init all the page lists one time during initialization,
it not only fixes the list corruption, but also avoids INIT_LIST_HEAD()
redundantly.

V2: change "int i" to "unsigned int i" (Geert Uytterhoeven)

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.
