dax: fix ENOMEM handling in grab_mapping_entry()
[ Upstream commit 1a14e3779dd58c16b30e56558146e5cc850ba8b0 ]
grab_mapping_entry() has a bug in handling of ENOMEM condition. Suppose
we have a PMD entry at index i which we are downgrading to a PTE entry.
grab_mapping_entry() will set pmd_downgrade to true, lock the entry, clear
the entry in xarray, and decrement mapping->nrpages. The it will call:
entry = dax_make_entry(pfn_to_pfn_t(0), flags);
dax_lock_entry(xas, entry);
which inserts new PTE entry into xarray. However this may fail allocating
the new node. We handle this by:
if (xas_nomem(xas, mapping_gfp_mask(mapping) & ~__GFP_HIGHMEM))
goto retry;
however pmd_downgrade stays set to true even though 'entry' returned from
get_unlocked_entry() will be NULL now. And we will go again through the
downgrade branch. This is mostly harmless except that mapping->nrpages is
decremented again and we temporarily have an invalid entry stored in
xarray. Fix the problem by setting pmd_downgrade to false each time we
lookup the entry we work with so that it matches the entry we found.
