Subject: [PATCH BUGFIX] radix-tree: fix contiguous iterator
Date: Tue, 05 Jun 2012 21:36:33 +0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20120605173633.27150.64995.stgit@zurg> (raw)

This patch fixes bug in macro radix_tree_for_each_contig().

If radix_tree_next_slot() sees NULL in next slot it returns NULL, but following
radix_tree_next_chunk() switches iterating into next chunk. As result iterating
becomes non-contiguous and breaks vfs "splice" and all its users.
