Mikulas Patocka 03e5ac2fc3 mm: fix crash when using XFS on loopback
Commit 8456a648cf ("slab: use struct page for slab management") causes
a crash in the LVM2 testsuite on PA-RISC (the crashing test is
fsadm.sh).  The testsuite doesn't crash on 3.12, crashes on 3.13-rc1 and
later.

 Kernel panic - not syncing: Bad Address (null pointer deref?)

Commit 8456a648cf changes the page structure so that the slab
subsystem reuses the page->mapping field.

The crash happens in the following way:
 * XFS allocates some memory from slab and issues a bio to read data
   into it.
 * the bio is sent to the loopback device.
 * lo_receive creates an actor and calls splice_direct_to_actor.
 * lo_splice_actor copies data to the target page.
 * lo_splice_actor calls flush_dcache_page because the page may be
   mapped by userspace.  In that case we need to flush the kernel cache.
 * flush_dcache_page asks for the list of userspace mappings, however
   that page->mapping field is reused by the slab subsystem for a
   different purpose.  This causes the crash.

Note that other architectures without coherent caches (sparc, arm, mips)
also call page_mapping from flush_dcache_page, so they may crash in the
same way.

This patch fixes this bug by testing if the page is a slab page in
page_mapping and returning NULL if it is.

The patch also fixes VM_BUG_ON(PageSlab(page)) that could happen in
earlier kernels in the same scenario on architectures without cache
coherence when CONFIG_DEBUG_VM is enabled - so it should be backported
to stable kernels.

In the old kernels, the function page_mapping is placed in
include/linux/mm.h, so you should modify the patch accordingly when
backporting it.
