Subject: nilfs2: prevent general protection fault in nilfs_clear_dirty_page()
Date: Mon, 12 Jun 2023 11:14:56 +0900
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.
