writeback, cgroup: do not reparent dax inodes
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
The inode switching code is not suited for dax inodes.  An attempt to
switch a dax inode to a parent writeback structure (as a part of a
writeback cleanup procedure) results in a panic like this:

  Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception
  Kernel Offset: 0x15200000 from 0xffffffff81000000 (relocation range: 0xffffffff80000000-0xffffffffbfffffff)
  ---[ end Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception ]---

The crash happens on an attempt to iterate over attached pagecache pages
and check the dirty flag: a dax inode's xarray contains pfn's instead of
generic struct page pointers.

This happens for DAX and not for other kinds of non-page entries in the
inodes because it's a tagged iteration, and shadow/swap entries are
never tagged; only DAX entries get tagged.

Fix the problem by bailing out (with the false return value) of
inode_prepare_sbs_switch() if a dax inode is passed.
