xarray: Fix early termination of xas_for_each_marked
xas_for_each_marked() is using entry == NULL as a termination condition of the iteration. When xas_for_each_marked() is used protected only by RCU, this can however race with xas_store(xas, NULL) in the following way: TASK1 TASK2 page_cache_delete() find_get_pages_range_tag() xas_for_each_marked() xas_find_marked() off = xas_find_chunk() xas_store(&xas, NULL) xas_init_marks(&xas); ... rcu_assign_pointer(*slot, NULL); entry = xa_entry(off); And thus xas_for_each_marked() terminates prematurely possibly leading to missed entries in the iteration (translating to missing writeback of some pages or a similar problem). If we find a NULL entry that has been marked, skip it (unless we're trying to allocate an entry).
