[PATCH 3.16 115/204] fs/mpage.c: fix mpage_writepage() for pages with buffers

From: Ben Hutchings
Date: Thu Dec 28 2017 - 12:53:11 EST


3.16.52-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Matthew Wilcox <willy@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit f892760aa66a2d657deaf59538fb69433036767c upstream.

When using FAT on a block device which supports rw_page, we can hit
BUG_ON(!PageLocked(page)) in try_to_free_buffers(). This is because we
call clean_buffers() after unlocking the page we've written. Introduce
a new clean_page_buffers() which cleans all buffers associated with a
page and call it from within bdev_write_page().
