Subject: nilfs2: fix general protection fault in nilfs_lookup_dirty_data_buffers()
Date: Sat, 5 Aug 2023 22:20:38 +0900
A syzbot stress test reported that create_empty_buffers() called from
nilfs_lookup_dirty_data_buffers() can cause a general protection fault.
Analysis using its reproducer revealed that the back reference "mapping"
from a page/folio has been changed to NULL after dirty page/folio gang
lookup in nilfs_lookup_dirty_data_buffers().
Fix this issue by excluding pages/folios from being collected if, after
acquiring a lock on each page/folio, its back reference "mapping" differs
from the pointer to the address space struct that held the page/folio.
